About the Festival

Presented by Sonare Music Academy, the 2027 Sonare Chopin Festival will celebrate the timeless music of Frédéric Chopin through four days of performances, March 4–7, 2027.

Building on Beethoven 32

The festival builds upon the success of Beethoven 32, a week-long concert series presented by Sonare Music Academy in 2026. Conceived and directed by Dr. Hwa-Jin Kim, this monumental project brought together 32 pianists, including Dr. Kim, to perform Beethoven’s complete cycle of 32 piano sonatas.
