Musikfest Bremen Atelier – with this concept, three international academy projects are taking place for the second time: world-renowned artists who are associated with the festival work on special repertoires with selected young musicians from all over the world in one-week Ateliers.

The Atelier »Katharinas Hofmusik IV – ein europäisches Format« (Catherine’s Court Music IV – A European Format), led by Alfredo Bernardini’s team of tutors in Jever, is dedicated to chamber music by European composers from the time of Catherine the Great – with Johann Friedrich Fasch at the centre, who took up his post as Hofkapellmeister at Catherine's native court in Zerbst 300 years ago.  (08/21/2022).

The Franco-Belgian bass and conductor Lionel Meunier leads the Atelier »Wege zu Bach« (Paths to Bach), together with members of his ensemble Vox Luminis. It explores which composers were formative for Johann Sebastian Bach on his journey from Eisenach via Ohrdruf, Arnstadt, Weimar and Köthen to Leipzig. In the first year, the focus is on Johann Pachelbel and Johann Kuhnau (09/03/2022).

The Atelier »The Art of Improvisation« focuses on mastering the technical and mental requirements that form an elementary foundation in jazz – but not only that! The Israeli-French pianist Yaron Herman is an expert in this art and brings together participants with different musical influences to teach them how to »read« the playing of their fellow musicians so they can give themselves completely to the music that arises from the moment (09/08/2022).
