Summit International Music Festival 2025

Founded in 1991, SUMMIT MUSIC FESTIVAL assembles a faculty of the highest caliber, representing the finest traditions of Europe, Asia and the American continents, to offer concentrated study in ensemble and orchestral programs to talented students from all over the world. As the largest and most comprehensive event of this kind in the New York Metro area, participants from more than 20 different countries have the opportunity to work and learn from faculty and guest artists of the highest caliber, amidst an atmosphere of friendship and mentoring. The successful integration of the Asian, European, and American methods creates the inviting ambiance where musicians from all over the world develop a network of associations vital to their professional development and career path.

Summit Music Festival exposes the student to the highest level of artistry and mastery of instrumental playing, and is an ideal environment for young professionals to connect with and learn from established professionals and preeminent musicians who can be influential in their career path. Geared for the highly self-motivated and independent music student, the intensive schedule focuses on close student-faculty collaboration through individual, chamber and orchestral study. Through rigorous preparation for the concerto competition or solo performance along with in-depth ensemble experiences, the students will have the opportunity to reach new heights.

I am happy to announce that registration for the Summit International Music Festival 2025 is now open to students.

As a student, you’ll participate in masterclasses taught by different faculty members, attend lessons daily, watch concerts held by the faculty, and much more. You will have a wonderful experience performing in Student Concerts playing your solo pieces and chamber music alongside fellow students. Each participant will receive a certificate of participation for attending the festival as well.

I’m very proud to be on the piano faculty of this amazing festival where I will be teaching and performing. I highly recommend this festival to everyone.

Students who would like to register into my classes and need additional information about the festival can contact me. We can discuss pieces you would like to perform.
