All apprentices receive full scholarships.For two weeks each June, these musicians live and work together, presenting concerts — ranging from solo recitals to large symphony orchestra performances with chorus — and free open rehearsals for music lovers from all over the world.  

Back by popular demand will be the Festival’s “Instrumental Petting Zoo,” a chance for curious music fans of all ages to see, touch and try to play all sorts of instruments. That will take place at 5:00 pm in the lobby outside Decker Theatre on Tuesday, June 6. Info, schedule and tickets
