Mimir Chamber Music Festival

The Mimir Chamber Music Festival proudly celebrated its 22nd anniversary season in 2019. Since its launch in 1998, our annual festival has enjoyed a growing audience of fans from throughout the Southwest. Mimir has presented over 100 exceptional concerts by our renowned Mimir Artists, and we have mentored some 250 talented young Emerging Artists. The addition of a week-long festival in Australia in 2013 further enhances Mimir’s international reputation as a leading venue for chamber music performance and instruction. Named for the Norse god of wisdom, the Festival features outstanding musicians from the world’s leading orchestras, music schools and concert halls. This season, we will present five Mimir Artists concerts and two Emerging Artists concerts. All performances are at TCU’s PepsiCo Recital Hall, except the Sunday matinee performance at the Kimbell Art Museum’s Renzo Piano ...
