Through the Weill Music Institute's professional training workshops and master classes, Carnegie Hall presents extraordinary, tuition-free opportunities for emerging musicians. These workshops are tailored to meet the individual and professional needs of young artists ages 18–35, and the group of participants selected is small enough to allow for very close interaction with workshop leaders. These intensive experiences provide insight that nurtures and inspires artistic vision, tools that help artists connect with audiences, and an environment that can foster lifelong relationships. Apply now for the 2012–2013 season.
