Founded in the fall of 1983, Festival Miami celebrates achievements in
music and the arts through a series of live performances, master
classes, guest lectures and 30 dynamic concerts staged throughout
October. Based upon four different themes, this season's concerts will
include Great Performances, Jazz & Beyond, Creative American Music and
Music of the Americas.
At its essence Festival Miami is designed to
showcase the University of Miami's Frost School of Music where students
and faculty composers get an opportunity to work with an international
roster of guest artists. Creating a vital link to the local community,
the university extends invitations to area public schools, senior
citizens, and non-profit organizations to be certain that great music
touches everyone.
While the original festival focused upon the music
of Latin America, the larger mission is to celebrate the diversity of
the Greater Miami community as it exposes a diverse range of world
cultures through music. If music is indeed the universal language,
Festival Miami strives to provide three distinct types of programs -
internationally acclaimed performers, Frost faculty and student
ensembles, and educational components like lectures and open rehearsals
designed to make music as accessible as possible to everyone. Tickets
are available online or at the box office with student and senior
discounts offered at each performance.
