Application information
Our courses/workshops and our mentoring program are open for all nations, for active and passive conductors and composers as well. We accept passive applications only for the master classes and NOT for the mentor program.
Conductors will work on contemporary ensemble or orchestra repertoire in daily rehearsals and lessons as part of our master courses.
Composers will work on their own compositions together with conductors if required and musicians.
