It all begins with an idea.

Transylvanian Symphony Foundation 

In addition to supporting schools, we offer scholarships to talented individuals who may otherwise be unable to pursue formal music education. These scholarships serve as beacons of hope, enabling deserving students to receive comprehensive training, mentorship, and exposure to renowned musicians and artists. We believe that financial limitations should never hinder the pursuit of artistic dreams. 

  To further promote artistic growth, the Transylvanian Symphony Foundation organizes engaging workshops and masterclasses. These transformative experiences bring together established musicians, dedicated educators, and passionate learners. Through interactive sessions, inspiring talks, and collaborative performances, we aim to ignite creativity, instill confidence, and encourage artistic exploration. 

Together, let us make the world resonate with the harmonies of artistic expression and create a brighter future through the universal language of music.  

 composing a brighter future!

Welcome to the Transylvanian Symphony Foundation!
