The Chroma International Music Festival is a summer festival in Miskolc, Hungary, which held its first season in July 2026. Founded by pianist and educator Dr. Shuai Wang, the festival is a personal artistic project rooted in excellence, mentorship, and cultural exchange.
A New Vision
Founded by acclaimed pianist and Steinway Artist Dr. Shuai Wang, Chroma is a personal artistic project created to nurture the next generation of musicians. The festival offers an intimate space for young artists to grow through mentorship, performance, and cross-cultural connection.
Our inaugural season was built around two core programs, piano and composition, bringing together an exceptional faculty and a cohort of dedicated students for an inspiring week of music-making in Miskolc, Hungary.
What Makes Chroma Unique
- World-class piano and composition faculty in an intimate, artist-focused setting
- Masterclasses, one-on-one lessons, and collaborative projects
- Public performances at the Bartók Institute and in the city of Miskolc
- A supportive environment led by artists who believe in nurturing voice, not just technique
Our Location
The festival is based at the Bartók Institute in Miskolc. Nestled in northeastern Hungary, Miskolc offers a beautiful, culturally rich setting for a truly international musical experience.
Our Future
Chroma is a long-term artistic commitment, a festival that will evolve and grow with time. We hope to bring together more gifted young artists and devoted adult musicians in future seasons. But from the very first year, our goal is clear: to offer something truly special for pianists, composers, and the wider musical community.
