Musical enjoyment at the highest level

This is the leitmotif of the Konz Music Festival, located in the picturesque four-country corner of Germany, Luxembourg, France and Belgium.

Here you will find selected young musicians and groups who will perform together during the master class at September 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7, 2025at the concerts as part of the official festival program.
The Academy not only offers the opportunity to work intensively with experienced teachers, especially in the master classes with the Pražák Quartet and Joseph Moog (piano), but also the chance to perform at the highest professional level and to make diverse contacts in the inspiring atmosphere of the festival.


Die Akademie findet in der Stadtbücherei Konz statt.

Dieses Gebäude wurde 1969 als Verwaltungsgebäude der Firma Zettelmeyer, heute Volvo AG basierend auf Plänen des berühmten Architekten Egon Eiermann von der AG für Industrieplanung Essen geplant und von der Strabag-Bau AG aus größtenteils industriell vorgefertigten Teilen errichtet und 1970 in Betrieb genommen. Die Fassaden der Schmalseiten wurden durch den Maler Georg Meistermann (1911-1990) farblich besonders gestaltet und gelten heute als gelungenes Beispiel der Veränderung eines Zweckbaus durch farbliche Dekoration zu einem Gesamtkunstwerk und einer städtebaulichen Dominante.
