Collaborative Piano Internships

Music Theater Bavaria is accepting applications from student pianists who wish to apply for a collaborative piano internship at MTB for summer 2012.  Our interns will spend the month of July learning more about vocal coaching and collaborating with singers.

We will offer four pianists substantial scholarship grants to attend MTB, where they will have the opportunity to attend classes, master classes and workshops with our students of opera and musical theater, including German singing diction, conversational German, song and aria interpretation, acting, movement, careers in the German-speaking countries and more! 

Collaborative piano interns will observe and work with our professional coaching staff (in either opera or musical theater - or both if desired), and will each be assigned to a voice studio taught by a distinguished teacher who can offer expert repertoire guidance.  (Accompanying for voice studios is generally limited to only a few hours a day.)  There may also be opportunities to accompany for classical and/or musical theater rehearsals and performances.

To apply, please submit a CD, DVD or YouTube video of three selections accompanying singers – with two of the selections from your preferred area of interest (either Opera/Lied or Musical Theater), and one from the other area.  Please also submit our Application form from the website.  (Pianist scholarships are merit scholarships based on talent, so you do not need to submit a scholarship application form.)

MTB will award four pianist interns scholarships in the amount of $4,000.00 each, bringing the total remaining cost of attending MTB to $1,995.00.  (This does not include airfare.  Please see the Dates and Costs, and the About MTB, sections of the website for detailed information about our included lodging, meals, local transportation and excursions.)
