The festival is an intensive four-week study program at the University of Houston's Moores School of Music.

Under the direction of Horst Foerster, these young artists perform Wagner's Overture to Die fliegende Hollander (The Flying Dutchman), Bartok's Concerto for Viola and Orchestra and Berlioz's Symphony Fantastique. The finalists and winner of the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Young Artist Competition will be announced.
