Green Lake Festival of Music (GLFM) is pleased to continue its dynamic Choral Conducting Apprentice Program. This initiative selects one Apprentice each summer and is designed for career-track singers, choral conductors, composers, and music educators enrolled in graduate-level programs. Very recently graduated students may also be considered.

Green Lake Festival of Music is committed to creating and maintaining a diverse and inclusive experience for choral singers. Black, Latinx, Asian/Pacific Islander, Indigenous, and LGBTQ+
emerging professionals are strongly encouraged to apply.

The selected Apprentice will receive tuition, sheet music, a private conducting lesson,
housing, and a $1,250 stipend.

The Choral Institute is led by GLFM Director of Choral Programs, John C. Hughes.

The Apprentice will have the opportunity to study and rehearse a diverse repertoire with GLFM’s dynamic artistic staff, professional instrumentalists, and dedicated singers—all
within a warm, supportive community.

The Apprentice will also have the opportunity to:

• Rehearse one piece and conduct it in performance
• Lead sectional rehearsals
• Take a complimentary private conducting lesson with Dr. Hughes
• Join the GLFM artistic staff for a round-table discussion

The selected Apprentice will receive tuition, sheet music, a private conducting lesson, housing, and a $1,250 stipend.
