The Musica Mundi Festival is an integral part of the course. This is why the choice of the Artists is vital to complete the educational target. Among the artists who are already members of the big Musica Mundi family are: Ivry Gitlis, Maxim Vengerov, Yvgeny Kissin, Nikolai Luganski, Mischa Maisky, Joshua Bell, Menahem Pressler, Nicholas Angelich, Gidon Kremer, Martha Argerich, Steven Isserlis, The King’s Singers, Jordi Savall, Fazil Say... In summer 2001, His Majesty King Philippe honoured Musica Mundi with a visit. In 2003, 2008, 2013 and 2018 Her Majesty Queen Mathilde granted Musica Mundi her High Patronage and in 2011 visited herself the course together with Princess Elisabeth.Since its creation, Musica Mundi has been a source of inspiration for many journalists and media partners. In summer 2013 a full length documentary was filmed by the RTBF and the VRT and broadcasted all over the world.

<p>With his extraordinary pianistic talents, Fazıl Say has been touching audiences and critics alike for more than 30 years, in a way that has become rare in the increasingly materialistic and elaborately organised classical music world. Concerts with this artist are something different. They are more direct, more open, more exciting; in short, they go straight to the heart. Fazıl Say had his first piano lessons from Mithat Fenmen, who had himself studied with Alfred Cortot in Paris. Perhaps sensing just how talented his pupil was, Fenmen asked the boy to improvise every day on themes to do with his daily life before going on to complete his essential piano exercises and studies. From 1987 onwards, Fazıl Say fine-tuned his skills as a classical pianist with David Levine, first at the Musikhochschule Robert Schumann in Düsseldorf and later in Berlin. His outstanding technique very quickly enabled him to master the so-called warhorses of the repertoire with masterful ease. It is precisely this blend of refinement and virtuoso brilliance in the works of Liszt, Mussorgsky and Beethoven that gained him victory at the Young Concert Artists international competition in New York in 1994. Since then he has played with all of the renowned American and European orchestras and numerous leading conductors. Guest appearances have taken Fazıl Say to countless countries on all five continents He also performs chamber music regularly: for many years he was part of a fantastic duo with the violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja. Other notable collaborators include Maxim Vengerov, the Borusan Quartet of Istanbul and the cellist Nicolas Altstaedt. His recordings of works by Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Gershwin and Stravinsky have been highly praised by critics and won several prizes, including three ECHO Klassik Awards. 2017, Fazıl Say received his fourth ECHO Klassik award. His 2018 album is dedicated to Debussy and Satie, whilst with his most recent recording “Troy Sonata – Fazıl Say Plays Say” he presents only his own works.</p>
