Applications for Atlanta Symphony Orchestra’s Talent Development Program due this week; info session tonight
The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra invites serious musicians who are currently in grades 4 through 9 to apply for next year’s Talent Development Program (TDP).
Students selected for TDP receive weekly lessons with an ASO musician, financial assistance for music summer programs, performance opportunities, audition coaching and other benefits.
This is a selective program, accepting only 25 young musicians for the year. TDP aims to bring diversity to high-level musical education; therefore, to qualify for TDP, a student must have at least one parent who is Black or Latinx.
An information session about the 2021-2022 TDP and the applications and audition processes will be held today, March 1, at 6 p.m. on Zoom. (Sorry about the late notice — I only received word of this today myself.) You must sign up to attend.
Applications for TDP are due March 7.
