Mission Statement

History
Among the great professors who came to MusicFest Perugia inspire us during the years: Gary Graffman, Jerome Lowenthal, John Perry, Boris Slutzki, Arie Vardi, Alexander Korsantia, Joseph Kalichstein, Yuki Yokoyama, Sergei Babayan, Peter Frankl, Sharon Cristman, Luigi Alva, Bruno Pratico, Bruno De Simone, Markus Groh, Jan Von Arnim, etc... While the festival has historically been based on young pianists, we have since gone on to incorporate vocalists and strings (Eva Mei and Jennifer Larmore).
