44th International Viola Congress

44th International Viola Congress
Wellington, New Zealand
The 44th International Viola Congress aims to promote and encourage the development of new viola repertoire, new insights into existing repertoire, and viola-related research, by bringing together international and national artists, organisations, and institutions through public recitals, lectures, and masterclasses in Wellington, New Zealand.

International Viola Congresses have been held annually since 1973, mostly in Europe and North America and have assisted in promoting the ever-increasing standards of excellence in viola performance and research. From September 1-5, 2017, the Australian New Zealand Viola Society (ANZVS) in collaboration with the International Viola Society and New Zealand School of Music Victoria University of Wellington will host the 44th International Viola Congress in Wellington, New Zealand. In 2001, the first Congress in the Southern Hemisphere was convened in Wellington, and since then Congresses have also been held in Africa and Australia.

We look forward to offering a five-day extravaganza of viola-filled activities while also showcasing Wellington’s unique culture and style as we host the International Viola Congress for the second time - see you in September 2017!
