NEWS ON SOCIAL MEDIA
The Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is the third largest classical music festival in Germany. A central program focus is the promotion of young, up-and-coming musicians.
The purpose of the society is to promote science, education, art and culture,
but especially to honor the memory of Fanny and Felix Mendelssohn and their work.
During the more than 100 concerts, spiritual Sundays and organ music events it organizes every year, the Dresden Frauenkirche Foundation dedicates special attention to providing venues for an unbiased view of the next generation of international top musicians and young talent.
The Mendelssohn-Haus is the house in which Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy lived and died. Today, it houses a museum in honour of Mendelssohn, who was active here not only as a composer and music director, but also as a cultural politician and piano virtuoso.
