In Porto Pianofest’s 6th edition, we introduce the Artist Residencies, aimed at young pianists who come to Porto to prepare for future projects-- recitals, competitions, recordings-- to work with artist faculty and present their music to PPF’s audience.
These are young virtuosi with brilliant careers ahead of them. Come meet and support the Artist Residencies participants!
