The International Young Artist’s Presentation (IYAP) is an ideal platform for young talented vocal and instrumental ensembles. The selected ensembles are awarded with intensive coaching sessions that will be led by Peter Van Heyghen and Raquel Andueza. They are also offered a performance opportunity during the early music festival Laus Polyphoniae in Antwerp and get the chance to present themselves to an international committee of music experts.

Since 2015 not only historical but also contemporary interpretations and interdisciplinary projects (that are inspired by historical sources) are eligible. The new formula wants to challenge young ensembles to present an original and innovating program.
