  • Testimonials

    “The 2009 WBIMF provided a great setting for really talented artists to come and make music together. From the facility and environment, to the great selection of repertoire, WBIMF provided a great opportunity for artists to practice, rehearse and perform. I have confidence that students and faculty that attend this year (2010) will find the festival a great place to come back to in the summer and be exposed to some of the best musicians in this country.”

    —Adriana Linares, Violist, 2009 and 2010 WBIMF artist/faculty member
