Academy Concerts
Up close, powerful, and deeply inspiring – the Academy Concerts at Forum Artium offer a rare chance to experience the rising stars of the international classical music scene in an intimate setting. At the conclusion of their masterclasses, participants perform works they have explored and refined under the guidance of renowned artists and educators.
These concerts in our chamber music hall showcase music at the highest level – vibrant, personal, and full of energy. There’s no stage barrier, no distance: often, just a few meters separate audience and performer. Many concerts are introduced or moderated by the instructors, offering unique insights into the artistic process and creating a welcoming space for conversation and connection.
Admission is free. We kindly invite donations at the exit – all proceeds go toward scholarships for young musicians who could not otherwise afford to take part.
Concert dates are listed on our website – or even easier, stay informed through our new newsletter.
