As a host parent, you are right in the thick of the music in your own home. And what could be more fun than immersing yourself in the festival by providing accommodation for young musicians? Do you live in Zeist or the immediate vicinity and would you like to welcome young singers and pianists during Internationaal Lied Festival Zeist in May? Get in touch with us!
Each year, participants in our masterclasses and the Young Artist Platform stay with host families. At your home, they can catch their breath after a long day of intensive work. As a host family, this gives you a unique behind-the-scenes look at young musicians. Offer the future of lied a welcome home and sign up!
For it is impossible to organise a successful festival without the support of host families.
So do you have one or two spare rooms to accommodate a liedduo (2 people) and the possibility to offer them breakfast? We would love to hear from you!
It would be nice if you:
In close consultation with the participants themselves, you coordinate whether ‘your students’ will join you for the evening meal or prepare a meal themselves. You also coordinate any other wishes yourself, to ensure it is an unforgettable experience for everyone. After all, a stay with a host family is experienced by the musicians as a warm embrace during strenuous and exciting days. And host families get to witness at close quarters how the young artists undergo enormous development in a short space of time. These short periods regularly result in lifelong friendships.
Send an email to masterclass@ilfz.nl and we will contact you as soon as possible.
