The five-week course, conducted primarily in English, consists of a co-ordinated program of four essential disciplines:

- a series of master classes unrivaled in scope (120 hours of instruction by foremost artists),

- intensive coaching in German diction and recitation with Austrian actors and actresses,

- individual coaching in voice and piano with our artists-in- residence,

- interpretative seminars in the poetry of the Lied.

Masterclass repertoire:

Preparation for the whole series of master classes consists of 24 songs by Berg, Brahms, Liszt, Mahler, Marx, Schubert, Schumann, Schoenberg, Strauss, Webern and Wolf. Precise guidelines for the choice of songs for each master teacher will be provided to successful applicants.

All singers will then be asked to submit complete lists of the songs they intend to perform, in order to facilitate the preparation of both participating pianists and the master course faculty.

All songs must be memorized for master class presentation.
