Since its launch in 2021, the Cellisimo Festival has been deeply impactful for its participants. So far, 90 highly talented cellists from 12 countries have benefited from this program and have expressed its transformative impact.

The central mission of Cellisimo is to provide access to young highly talented Latin American cellists of limited means to a life-changing festival, which gives them the tools they need to launch their careers. The festival takes away travel barriers by being online, and is entirely run in Spanish. Your support means opening the door for these cellists. And this festival opens the door VERY wide for them.

The festival is online and provides incredibly dedicated cellists the possibility to work with world-renowned international faculty, participate in transformative wellness classes, and the opportunity to network and form relationships that are integral to career development and success.

Students need a full scholarship to cover the US$2,000 tuition. The students who apply to this festival are highly talented but come from limited means and resources. 

Your donation helps grow our scholarship fund so that we can make this experience possible for these stellar students.

Your donation not only goes toward the scholarship fund, but also to expand programs that Cellisimo would like to offer, such as in-person workshops, alumni events and a program for students 24-30 years old. With your help, we can continue to give access to this unique experience to highly talented students, and be able to expand our reach even more.

We hope you will join the growing community of donors who have teamed together to support these incredible musicians from across Latin America. Your donation enables these students to have the most incredible and transformative experience and helps catapult them to become the next leaders in the classical music industry. The Cellisimo alumni are already changing the landscape of classical music in Latin America and beyond. Help us grow this legacy!

We invite you to become part of the growing Cellisimo family, who together, create change and transformation!
