President
Middle East Classical Music Academy
Dear friends!
I am very pleased to welcome you all to the second edition of the Middle East Classical Music Academy, which marks the grandest and most ambitious educational initiative that the Middle East has yet seen.
After witnessing the unanimous approval from professors and students alike that met our inaugural edition of this event, coupled with an ever-increasing demand for more endeavours of its type, we have taken the decision to not only bring the MECMA back, but also increase its remit, both in terms of size as well as geographical scope. In fact, while last year’s iteration was limited to the city of Dubai, MECMA 2022 shall now be taking place all across the UAE, with events being held in no fewer than four different emirates throughout the country!
Featuring almost two weeks of non-stop concerts and masterclasses led by some of the most distinguished professors and musicians active today, this year’s MECMA shall see hundreds of young musicians across the region being given the unique opportunity to study and learn from these masters first-hand, gaining a deeper insight into their instrument and a newfound understanding of their own abilities in the process.
I would like to humbly thank all those who have worked with us to ensure that such an event can be made possible, including the many public agencies whose support has proven crucial, and our dedicated international partners.

Ultimately, I firmly believe that initiatives such as these represent a crucial step in helping to foster the continued growth and development of classical music around the world, since they can very well be the making of the music stars of tomorrow! I am certain that all those students who shall be joining us shall have a productive and fulfilling experience, and urge you all to make the most of what is surely to be an invaluable and transformative opportunity.
With best regards and respect,
