Even though it bears the name of the vibrant tropical city, the Miami International Piano Festival Academy organizes pedagogical musical programs worldwide, conveying the tradition of great musical masters with a strong awareness of today's state of the classical music industry.
We believe that attending the MIPFA can be a transcendental experience. Our commitment is to inspire and stimulate all participants. Our philosophy is to help students find the means that will support their development toward the culmination of their musical objectives.
The MIPFA Winter Piano Program takes place at the wonderful Cadet Hotel, in the heart of Miami Beach. A luxurious venue that, combined with the warm weather, makes the perfect equation for learning piano.
The MIPFA ‘s unique format fosters inspiration, supports individuality, energizes and encourages participants to find their own voice by studying with several artists who generously share their vision through private lessons, masterclasses and performances in a non-competitive environment and a magical location.
MIPFA is different because it allows students to hear and appreciate differences, allowing them the freedom to choose what is most natural and comfortable for their hands, mind, and heart.
“I have to say again how grateful I am to have attended the Winter Academy. It was a special way to start 2023 and I’m feeling renewed for what’s to come!”
