GUSTAV KUHN
OTHER PROJECTS
Gustav Kuhn is also very renown for a lot of activities that do not have anything to do with music. For example he loves riding his motor bike and used to be part of the olympic national sailing team of Austria. But over the years he focused more and more on supporting new talents in the music business and developing other artistic projects besides that of the Tyrolean Festival Erl. Find out more about these activities below...
Accademia di Montegral
The Accademia di Montegral is Kuhn’s counter project to the music and opera industries he has criticized so much over the years. Gustav Kuhn and his love of music is the driving force of the Academy. Upcoming talents from all over the world receive individual support and coaching, the chance of holistic development as artists and the opportunity to create a sustainable career in music.
