HISTORY
Now in
its 26th season, the Killington Music Festival, a non-for-profit
organization, is the only resident professional classical
music organization in central Vermont. Each summer about
100 students gather at Killington from institutions such
as The Juilliard School of Music, Boston Conservatory,
The New England Conservatory, The Manhattan School of Music,
Peabody Conservatory, Eastman School of Music and the
University of Arizona. These musicians come to the
area to play chamber music and to teach string students.
Performances by the faculty and invited guest artists have
made the Festival a mainstay of summer culture in the region.
The young musicians who attend the Killington Residency
Program are graduate, college and talented high school students.
Many of our students, as well as many alumni, are members
of chamber groups and orchestras in the United States as
well as in other countries.
