If you attend the Talent Program, you may receive a grant if you participate in other organizers’ courses that’s specialized for your instrument.

Focus instruments – for educators

If you are a teacher in one of the focus instruments; oboe, bassoon, french horn, euphonium / baritone, tuba, harp, viola or double bass, we can offer you:

 – Free auscultation online or on site, suited your requests, during individual lessons or full days on all courses.

 – Extra compensation. If you participate with your own student(s) and a colleague(s), you can teach online or on site at our courses. You can also exchange students with each other and receive compensation for both.

 – Compensation for teaching. If you have students who attend the talent program, you may receive compensation from us for your increased teaching time from home (if it is not already compensated for). This benefit is tested in each individual case.
