About | Constella Festival

Constella Festival of Music and Fine Arts was created to showcase and celebrate the depth and breadth of musical and artistic life in Cincinnati. Constella presents unique collaborations between international artists of the highest caliber, in partnership with many of the city’s finest performing arts organizations, to spotlight the rich and vibrant musical fabric of Cincinnati. As well as traditional chamber music, Constella Cincinnati brings to audiences world premieres of several ground-breaking works, interweaving music, visual art and dance into multi-sensory artistic performances.

The Festival is comprised of several performances and installations that take place in October and early November in both conventional as well as unusual venues and surroundings, making for a truly intriguing, unexpected and exciting experience. The name “Constella” is derived from the idea of a collection of individual points of view, genres and influences that come together to create a complete constellation. The Festival is developed and organized by Tatiana Berman, an accomplished and award winning violinist and Cincinnati resident. Ms. Berman is also a founding member of the concert:nova ensemble, which is best known for presenting innovative classical music programs in conjunction with various and unique art forms.
