Musethica is master course program designed for advanced young musicians and existing chamber music ensembles. It aims to enhance their interpretative skills while nurturing their inspiration, listening abilities, and overall musical proficiency.
Joining Musethica means becoming part of an international community of young musicians who excel in their craft and enjoy the social experience of performing music for diverse audiences. The program's method has proven to be highly effective in helping advanced musicians master the art of performance, with many of Musethica's students and alumni winning prestigious international competitions.
Throughout two seasons, accepted musicians or ensembles have the opportunity to participate in multiple Musethica sessions or Chamber Music Festivals. Musethica provides scholarships to cover the tuition fees for all participants involved in Musethica activities.
-
Musethica's sessions are immersive week-long courses that allow each musician or ensemble to perform 10 to 14 concerts of solo and chamber music works. These sessions typically begin with two days of rehearsals and/or masterclasses, followed by daily concerts in various locations within the community
As part of the sessions, musicians perform alongside Musethica's Tutors. These experienced mentors play a crucial role in providing feedback to young musicians in between and after the concerts. Engaging in discussions, rehearsals, and lessons with the tutors is pivotal for the growth and development of these musicians.
Annually, Musethica's program encompasses up to 40 sessions, taking place in 12 countries. These collaborations include partnerships with renowned institutions such as the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (mdw) and the Escuela Superior de Música de Cataluña (ESMUC), as well as prominent chamber music festivals like the Zeist Music Days in Holland and orchestras such as the Norrköping Symphony Orchestra or Sinfonia Varsovia.
-
Musethica International Chamber Music Festivals offer an experience built upon the same principle as the sessions, however featuring a larger number of musicians, ensembles, tutors, and concerts.
Chamber Music Festivals take place yearly in Berlin, Zaragoza, Bourg-en-Bresse, Norrköping and Israel.
