More About Us

 

Established in 1998, the Miami International Piano Festival is the offspring of Patrons of Exceptional Artists, a 501(c)(3) non profit.   It is dedicated to the discovery, promotion, nurture, and support of extraordinary artists and the long-term goal of ensuring continuity with the great traditions of the past.

Exceptionally talented pianists, with unwavering dedication, devote their entire youth to developing their skills, abiding by rigid and demanding schedules, and focusing on achieving a successful music career. During this arduous process, they often find themselves lost without the support and understanding of a benefactor. That is where the mission and purpose of Patrons of Exceptional Artists comes in, an organization that, for the last 27 years, has brought the talent of countless deserving pianists to the attention of the public, conductors, and agents. Many of our artists are now in the international circuit, represented by top managements. 

 To enrich its mission, in 1998, Patrons of Exceptional Artists branched out to create the now-celebrated Miami International Piano Festivals and Academy, where students experience the hands-on immersion of working closely with an outstanding international faculty. In the winter, the MIPFA takes place at the beautiful Cadet Hotel in Miami Beach, and in the summer at the Gustav Mahler Cultural Center in Dobbiaco, Italy, a gateway to the Dolomites, about which Mahler wrote, “Dobbiaco is extraordinary: it tempers your body and soul.”

 We have also expanded our outreach through an online state-of-the-art virtual platform that continues to evolve, creating an archive and visual library of all MIPF activities. The goal is to provide global exposure to our artists while allowing music lovers worldwide to enjoy our concerts, lectures, and masterclasses. The Miami International Piano Festival concerts are interactive experiences that engage our audiences and enhance their appreciation of music in its infinite prism of ideas and emotions.



Mission

Patrons of Exceptional Artists was established in 1997 as a 501(c)(3) publicly supported organization dedicated to developing the careers of future great performing artists. Since then, the institution has carried the ancient labor of "artist patronage," helping the development and establishment of the professional careers of several hundred musicians over the past 26 years.
