Beginning students learn to play an instrument.
Experienced students are provided with the opportunity to develop their skills.
Advanced students can challenge themselves in the Senior level programs and special events.

Often compared to immersion programs, students find that a week at the Festival accelerates their learning skills dramatically.

KSMF welcomes adult students, and many have enjoyed learning a new instrument, or taking the time to polish skills.

Many families have planned their holidays around the programs, and form new friendships at the Festival.

KSMF offers the opportunity to learn from world-class artists during the day, attend their concerts in the evening, and grow to know and appreciate these performers in person.
