Music for Future 2026

International Youth String Orchestra Project

Krzyżowa, Poland | 5–12 July 2026

About the Project

Music for Future is an international youth project built around a shared belief: that music can be a space for genuine encounter, creative courage, and meaningful dialogue.

Born in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, this year marks the fifth edition of the project. What began as an act of solidarity has grown into something enduring — a community of young musicians from across Europe who come together each summer to make music, ask difficult questions, and reimagine what it means to be an artist today.
