An Immersion into Classical Music and Emerging Talents

The international NUME Academy & Festival returns to Cortona from June 23 to June 29, 2025, bringing a rich and varied program that combines the tradition of classical music with the fresh and promising voices of young musicians. The festival, with its dual spirit, unfolds both as an international masterclass for emerging talents and as a series of high-level concerts featuring some of the greatest soloists in classical music.

Great Artists and Rising Stars

This year, the festival will feature two living legends of music: Gidon Kremer and Steven Isserlis, alongside Artistic Director Vlad Stanculeasa. Joining them is a selection of internationally renowned artists including Stella Chen, Ettore Causa, Andreas Brantelid, Mari Fujino, Lorena Tecu, Irène Duval, Madara Pētersone, Tommaso Lonquich, Enrico Pace, and Boris Kusnezow.
In Cortona, free advanced training masterclasses will be held for 13 young talents, selected from 320 applications from all over the world. Participants will be able to refine their skills with teachers from prestigious academies and put themselves to the test in public recitals.

A Festival to Experience and Share

With its diverse program, NUME Academy & Festival offers a unique vision of classical music. Not only evening concerts, but also a lively atmosphere of cultural exchange between generations and different musical backgrounds.
The performances are an opportunity to experience live music, but also to discover the behind-the-scenes of the creative and educational process.
Cortona, with its timeless charm, becomes a true musical capital for one week.
The festival is an unmissable opportunity
