Miami Music Festival

Since its 2014 inception, Miami Music Festival (MMF) has been proud to establish Miami as a premier destination for elite young classical musicians to train and perform. While the next generation of classical artists come to Miami to receive instruction from an assembly of world-class faculty, the community benefits from accessible public concerts featuring top talent alongside many of classical music's greatest living performers in repertoire rarely heard in South Florida.

With training institutes in Orchestra, Opera, Piano, and Conducting, MMF development also includes a pre-college program, a pioneering Career Institute, and a Professional Division incorporating the Miami Wagner Institute. MMF receives nearly 1,500 international applicants each season, selecting around 200 participants through a rigorous audition process. MMF has welcomed students and faculty from over 25 countries and many of the world's most esteemed music institutions. The festival attracts internationally sought-after performers and teaching-artists eager to identify and cultivate the pre-professional careers of talented young musicians.

In nine short seasons, the festival has expanded into five full weeks of programming during the summer season and presenting over 50 public events each year including 5 full opera productions, 3 symphonic concerts, 20 opera, chamber music, Zarzuela and Musical theater concerts; and 30 masterclasses hosted throughout Miami Beach venues. Furthermore, MMF is dedicated to engaging local youth and Miami's underserved neighborhoods through successful outreach, community partnerships and by providing accessible events and tickets.
