Setzer and the Sound of Dreams
Artistic Director Philip Setzer is our guide through a vivid, varied dreamscape in sound, slipping from a musical curio by Benjamin Franklin (yes, that Benjamin Franklin!) to Samuel Barber’s elegiac Adagio for Strings.
Unbound: Rising Stars
Experience our Festival Young Artists pushing boundaries in solo performances that bring their individual voices to the forefront. Be part of their journey from conservatory to the concert stage.
Young Artist Program
The Manchester Music Festival’s Young Artists Program is a five-week, full-scholarship chamber music residency for ages 18–26, or currently enrolled in a conservatory or university music program. Designed as a bridge from conservatory to concert stage, it offers an immersive, performance-focused experience.
Young Artists are fully integrated into Festival life, performing alongsiderenowned guest artists in an intensive schedule of rehearsals, concerts, and events.
