The Fellowship offers an intensive year-long professional development opportunity and is designed to enable an aspiring young conductor to bridge the gap between full-time conservatoire- based study and the music profession by providing them with the means and time to develop their professional skills and contacts with the support of the Head of Postgraduate Programmes and a Trinity College of Music Mentor.
Available to external applicants as well as current Trinity students and alumni, there is no upper age limit, but candidates should already have successfully completed formal studies at a level at least equivalent to a postgraduate diploma or degree, or be completing these studies in the academic year in which the application is made.
The Sir Charles Mackerras Junior Fellow will be awarded a tax- free bursary of £4,000 to help defray the cost of living during the academic year of their tenure.
Normally awarded for a period of one academic year, with an option for renewal for one further academic year.
2nd April 2010
22nd or 23rd April 2010
£50 (payable upon application, this will be refunded if application is not successful in being shortlisted)
