President Robert Sirota is pleased to announce that applications
are being accepted for the Graduate Degree in Contemporary Performance,
a new degree program at Manhattan School of Music.
Students will have the opportunity to focus on music written during
the last 100 years; to perform regularly with the school's resident
contemporary ensemble, TACTUS;
and to be part of New York City's vibrant contemporary music community.
The program features both private instruction and regular group
seminars with renowned musicians active in the performance of new
music. The curriculum includes composition, improvisation, multimedia
performance, and world music.
