We are thrilled to announce our co-sponsorship of the European Harp Symposium, subtitled “Stellae Matutinae” (Morning Star), which will take place from 11 to 18 April 2025 in Feldkirch, Austria.
The symposium boasts a lineup that would be the envy of any major festival! Featuring 16 concerts spanning baroque to jazz, with performances by solo artists and quintets, alongside 9 workshops and 5 masterclasses that will offer deep insights into pedagogical, aesthetic, historical, and musicological topics. The symposium will also include a vibrant supporting programme and exhibitions from the world’s leading harp makers, of which Camac is proud to be one.
While attendees will encounter the biggest stars of the European harp scene, including Isabelle Moretti, Sylvain Blassel, and Jana Bouškovà, there will also be a focus on nurturing young talents—these “morning stars” reflect the festival’s title.
Tickets are now available to everyone, and it is important to note that the event is primarily funded by ticket sales. By purchasing a ticket, you directly support the symposium’s goals: promoting young talent and ensuring fair payment for all participating artists. Additionally, attractive packages are available for families, teachers, and their students.

The seventh edition of the International Harp Competition in Szeged, Hungary, will take place between November 19 – November 23 , 2025. There are three competition categories: 14 and under, 19 and under and 25 and under, and the competition always celebrates a Hungarian composer and a major harp repertoire composer. For the seventh edition, the event will celebrate two significant anniversaries: the 150th anniversary of the births of Henriette Renié and Maurice Ravel (both born in 1875), and the 50th anniversary of the passing of Marcel Grandjany (who died in 1975).
Their compositions have been included as set pieces in the program, alongside works by two Hungarian composers, reflecting the competition’s ongoing mission to support and promote Hungarian music.
Comprehensive information about rules, prizes, programmes and deadlines are available here on the competition’s webpage. You’ll also find the entry form, including upload details for the video preliminary round. The closing date for applications is September 15, 2025.
