Year after year, our student-performers from every campus in the network have convened to showcase their musical talents, cultures, and traditions.

Our network of Schools values tradition and one of our favorites is the annual International Music Festival, which started at Carnegie Hall, one of the most famous concert venues in the world. 

Today, we alternate hosting these majestic concerts in the home cities of our Schools around the world, affording students ongoing opportunities to visit other campuses and countries — and to come together in an immersive experience over the course of an incredible week of collaboration, rehearsals, and bonding. The concerts, which are the culminating event of the music festival, feature a wide range of performers, from soloists to ensembles and an all-School orchestra; as well as different musical genres, ranging from classical, pop, rock, and jazz to traditional music played on Chinese and Korean instruments. Each year, our global concert has a different theme, which unifies our community and shapes the musical program.

While these annual performances showcase the multitude of student musical sparks of genius across our global network, nothing is more powerful than the friendships they forge and the memories they create, which will last a lifetime.
