The experience

What's special

The MasterWorks Festival is an intensive, four-week festival for advanced and passionate students of the classical performing arts, ages 14 to 26, presented by the Christian Performing Artists' Fellowship in an atmosphere of Christian faith. The first four-week festival began in 1997 at Houghton College, and the festival has been at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, since 2025. It celebrated its 30th season in summer 2026, and the 31st season is set for 13 June to 11 July 2027.

How it works

Programs include Orchestra, String Intensive, Piano, Flute Intensive, Vocal Intensive, Composition and Enrichment, with a Preparatory Chamber Orchestra Program new for 2027. World-renowned conductors lead weekly orchestra concerts, and recitals feature faculty and students. Masterclasses are open to all festival participants, but students generally cannot join more than one program at a time. Parking on campus is free, and all lessons, masterclasses and rehearsals are conducted in English.

Who it suits

The festival is for students aged 14 to 26 in the classical performing arts, with fellowships and scholarships available through the festival application. International students are welcome and all correspondence and teaching are in English.
