IMAI - since 1997...

Northern New Hampshire
and Western
Maine...
July 11
- 20, 2013 - 17th Annual International Musical Arts Institute
Summer Chamber Music Concert
Series/Festival
Founded in 1997, the
International Musical Arts Institute/Festival of Fryeburg, Maine, is a summer
community of classically trained musicians, who range from young professionals and career-bound advanced-level conservatory
students to established artists with international reputations. Over the years IMAI has attracted more than two hundred
artist/musicians representing some thirty nations on five continents, and each summer season these talented artists present
more than 24 major works in concert during the course of the Festival.
IMAI provides a setting
where young aspiring professional musicians and seasoned artists can work together, share ideas and learn from each other
within an atmosphere of collegiality, guidance and mutual support. We expect more than 30 fine colleague musicians
will be joining us for our 17th season, and all of these fine talented individuals come to the Institute/Festival on an invitational
basis. They are not classified as “students” or “faculty”, since IMAI considers all musicians inherently
to be both students and teachers. In that spirit, IMAI seeks to cultivate an atmosphere of community, cooperation and continuous
development in the quest for musical and artistic excellence.
