"At IIMIF, musicians are challenged to improve not only their playing ability, but their mental and physical connection to the notes as well."

Founded in 2003, IIMIF has been lauded as an exceptional summer solo and chamber music program for string players and pianists. With a maximum enrollment of 25 students each year, we offer a uniquely individual approach that is both challenging and supportive. Our interdisciplinary curriculum has been crafted to give young musicians an array of experiences that will elevate musicianship and artistic confidence. Participants have credited their IIMIF with technical, musical, and personal growth that has extended far into their studies and careers.

A review of our 2020 session:
In July 2020, IIMIF moved online in response to Covid-19. Participants joined from Maryland, Pennsylvania, Iowa, New Hampshire, Virginia, and Brazil. Over the course of two weeks, we all connected with each other through daily workshops and yoga sessions, weekly masterclasses and performances, and lessons with our incredible faculty members.
