Classical Hugs

What is #Classical Hugs?

​A hug is a simple expression of warmth. Due to current social distancing from the Covid 19 crisis, it is something we deeply miss as human beings. However, music has the unique ability to “touch” us across these distances.

Classical Hugs is a virtual music academy. Participants will be offered lessons and masterclasses on piano, violin, viola, cello, or flute with eminent international musicians. We will also offer lectures by expert instructors, and the opportunity for students to perform in online concerts broadcasting to thousands of viewers worldwide. Before each performance, students and faculty will have the opportunity to send personal messages of compassion and caring to their listeners.

As we envision a future in which live concerts become a possibility once again, our mission is to offer educational and performing opportunities to musicians across the globe.
