"Lege artis" means: "by the law of art". That is the main idea of "LegeArtis" in Lech. "Quality and internationality" are the two principles that led to the creation of the Festival in Lech. The intention was to draw young and exceptional artists from various fields of art to Lech and – inspired by this picturesque place in the mountains – let them enter into an "intercultural dialogue" with each other. In the past years, renowned artists and ensembles have performed at the Festival: Julian Rachlin, Stefan Vladar, the Vienna KammerOrchester, the Pepe Lienhard Band, Dmitry Sinkovsky, Aleksey Igudesman and the Apollon Musagète Quartet, to name but a few.
► Multi-disciplinary format: in addition to concerts, the festival features lectures, exhibitions, installations, and video art-performances.
► Young and already successful musicians perform side by side with renowned artists.
► The audience of the festival is comprised of music lovers, lech visitors, special guests and city administration representatives.
► Variety of event locations: from luxury-level hotel complexes to a medieval cathedral
