Festival Klášterní hudební slavnosti je mezinárodní hudební festival s tradicí, který svou vysokou dramaturgickou a uměleckou úrovní zaujímá místo jednoho z nejvýznamnějších a nejzajímavějších hudebních festivalů současnosti, na Moravě se již tímto superlativem může v daném období pochlubit beze zbytku. Jak již z názvu vyplývá, koncertuje festival především v sakrálních skladbách nebo v prostředí, která jsou s církevními institucemi historicky nějakým způsobem spojena (kostely, bývalý nebo i současný majetek církví apod.), ale nevyhýbáme se i občasnému vybočení, ať už z důvodu kapacity, organizace nebo podmínek.

O věhlasu akce, ale také o zájmu posluchačů svědčí i fakt, že se návštěvnická úroveň rok co rok zvyšuje. Festival je nejenom pevnou součástí kulturního života Olomouckého kraje (kde se koná naprostá většina koncertů) s přesahem do krajů Moravskoslezského a Pardubického, ale stává se důležitým hybatelem festivalové turistiky. Za koncerty posluchači cestují z různých koutů a podporují tím také turistický průmysl. Návštěvníkům koncertů nabízí koncerty českých i zahraničních umělců mimořádné umělecké úrovně. Za dobu své existence navštívilo koncerty přes 33 tisíc posluchačů, kteří se mohou těšit na dramaturgicky pestrou a vyváženou skladbu koncertů, ať již formou komorních recitálů či koncertů komorních i větších těles nebo pěveckých sborů. Na festivalu se představují zásadní díla symfonické, operní, oratorní ale i komorní hudby.
The Klášterní hudební slavnosti festival is an international music festival with a tradition, which with its high dramaturgical and artistic level occupies the place of one of the most important and interesting music festivals of today, in Moravia it can already boast of this superlative in the given period. As the name implies, the festival performs mainly in sacred compositions or in environments that are historically connected with church institutions in some way (churches, former or current property of churches, etc.), but we do not avoid occasional deviations, either because of capacity , organization or conditions.

The fame of the event, but also the interest of the audience is evidenced by the fact that the visitor level is increasing year by year. The festival is not only an integral part of the cultural life of the Olomouc region (where the vast majority of concerts take place) with an overlap to the Moravian-Silesian and Pardubice regions, but it is also becoming an important driver of festival tourism. During the concerts, the listeners travel from different corners and thus also support the tourism industry. It offers concertgoers concerts of Czech and foreign artists of extraordinary artistic level. During its existence, over 33,000 listeners have attended concerts, who can look forward to a dramaturgically varied and balanced composition of concerts, whether in the form of chamber recitals or concerts of chamber and larger ensembles or choirs. The festival presents major works of symphonic, opera, oratorio and chamber music.

Povaleč is not about mainstream popular culture or money, it is about bringing people together and creating something different.

In the top performance of important ensembles and leading performers of our and foreign scene, listeners can listen to well-known masterpieces in traditional and new contexts, as well as musical novelties. The interdisciplinarity, which stood at the very beginning of the festival in the form of a scientific symposium devoted to the issues of Czech culture of the 19th century, is maintained. Within the cultural context, the festival is rare in that it connects the world of music with the world of science, philosophy, literature, fine arts, theater and film. An integral part of the festival is also the involvement of Pilsen artists and performers.
