YOMA open course weekend January

The course is aimed at wind and string musicians in the Open Programme. If you are already in the Talent Programme or want to apply for it, you can find information and application here. The course is given IRL. Accompanying educators are welcome. The course takes place at the same time as Polstjärnepriset part 2. 

The course is also suitable for those who

• are too young for the Polstjärnepriset competition and course, but have a high level
• cannot participate in Polstjärnepriset (due to Polstjärnepriset’s attendance requirements in both November and January)

The course takes place 2-6 January; application deadline: 10 November

You apply for one lesson, a full day or several days. Instrumental teachers are welcome to accompany their own students or to observe the course for themselves.

If you are well prepared and needed in our ensembles and orchestras, you may be asked to participate in one or more of our concerts.
