MHF Lípa Musica

The Lípa Musica International Music Festival, which began as a local festival in Česká Lípa in 2000 oriented around spiritual music, has grown over the years into an important musical and social festival whose arrival is impatiently awaited at the start of every autumn. Currently, Lípa Musica is the biggest festival focused mainly on classical music in the Liberec Region and with overlap into the Ústí nad Labem Region and Saxony. During the festival’s existence, over 350 concerts have been held in more than 30 Czech and seven German locations at which some 5,000 artists have performed, seen by more than 50,000 visitors. The festival focuses on the presentation of classical music in selected interpretations by Czech and international artists, but also presents non-classical genres, dance, ballet and opera. An important line in the programming is Czech-German cooperation, for which the festival is logically predestined by its location, implemented not only by the presentation of German artists in Bohemia, but also by the holding of concerts in Saxony, where the festival is exported by prominent representatives of Czech music culture. At the same time, Lípa Musica actively supports the musical education and development of the youngest generations.
