Gauthier Herrmann discovered India in 2001 as a young solo cellist and never stopped coming back. He returned soon after with his Trio con Fuoco and later with the Neemrana quartet. By then, the seeds of Artie’s Festival had been sown, and in March 2008, the first concerts of the festival took place at the NCPA. Since then, Artie’s Festival has travelled to other parts of Southeast Asia, Central Asia, the Gulf and, of course, all over Europe.

The 27th Edition of Artie’s Festival at the NCPA will be presented in April 2024. The programming for the festival, always curated by Herrmann and NCPA Chairman Khushroo N. Suntook, includes well-known masterpieces, relatively less-known music and reductions of famous orchestral works.
