International Musical Arts Institute

A summer chamber-music festival in Fryeburg

The International Musical Arts Institute of Fryeburg, Maine, is a summer chamber-music festival which draws upon the talents from a community of classically trained musicians, who range from young professional and career-bound advanced-level conservatory students to established artists with international reputations. Founded in 1997 by legendary violinist and pedagogue Eric Rosenblith, who served for more than a quarter century as chairman of the string department at the New England Conservatory of Music, and his wife, Carol, IMAI has attracted more than two hundred musicians over the years, representing some thirty nations on five continents.
