A Musical Journey through Europe
The Chamber Music Festival 2027 will once again become an alumni gathering of the Kronberg Academy: outstanding international musicians who studied at the Kronberg Academy come together to reconnect or meet for the first time.
They celebrate through what connects them most deeply: making music together. This time, the festival takes audiences on a journey through Europe — to Hungary, Italy, Austria, Norway, Poland, and Russia.
A celebration of encounters, diversity, and musical connection.
