Welcome to the Riga Jurmala Academy

In the summer of 2020 we are proud to introduce a new music education initiative by Riga Jurmala Music Fesival – Riga Jurmala Academy! It promises to extend Latvia’s exceptional reputation for music education to the world. Organised in collaboration with the Jāzeps Vītols Latvian Academy of Music, the country’s centre for excellence in classical music training, the Academy will provide unique artistic development opportunities for young and talented musicians from the Baltics and abroad.

The Riga Jurmala Music Festival is now contributing to the country’s stellar music education system and extending this opportunity abroad with a brand-new academy, inviting Latvians and international music students to participate in masterclasses with some of the world’s top musicians alongside the Festival weekends.

Masterclasses in piano, conducting, strings and woodwind will be led by the world’s leading artists – pianists András Schiff and Leif Ove Andsnes, and the leading musicians of the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra (17-21 July) - Tobias Steymans and Julita Smoleń (principal violins), Lionel Cottet (principal cello), Philippe Boucly (principal flute), Natalie Schwaabe (principal piccolo flute), who will all be performing in Riga and Jurmala throughout the Festival.
