The Festival and the Competition
The Leonard Falcone International Euphonium and Tuba Festival is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization. It was created to sustain and develop the annual Festival, which is held over a four day period each summer at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp located in Twin Lake, Michigan.
Student and artist level competitions in both Euphonium and Tuba are integral to the Festival. The competition cash prizes (all listed in US Dollars) are underwritten by foundations, companies, and friends who believe in the values of the Festival.
In addition to the competition aspect of the Festival, participants are offered the opportunity to attend master classes and recitals provided by internationally recognized euphonium/tuba artists.
The Leonard Falcone International Euphonium and Tuba Festival has gained recognition as the premier annual event of its kind. It has a truly international flavor, with contestants attending from countries around the world.
