The Leipzig Opera and the Richard Wagner Society Leipzig are offering three scholarships for the Bayreuth Festival 2025 in the categories
"Singing", "Instrumental music" (except piano solo and organ) and "Accompaniment" to
Richard Wagner's work. The
winners will receive the Richard Wagner Young Talent Award: 1st prize €2,000, 2nd prize €1,000 & 3rd prize €800.
Applicants between the ages of 18 and 35 who are enrolled at a
European university, conservatory or equivalent
institution and have not yet received a Bayreuth scholarship are eligible. Further information can be found on the homepage.
With the support of the Association of Friends and Sponsors of the Cologne University of Music and Dance, the Jazz / Pop Department of the University awards the Minnemann Scholarship of the Jazz / Pop Department. The scholarship is aimed at students in Departments 6 and 5 majoring in jazz/pop and supports projects by students in the field of jazz/pop which, in addition to their high artistic quality, go beyond the university framework.
For many HfMT students, a stay at the Palazzo Ricci in Montepulciano is one of the highlights of their entire studies. In order to make this stay possible for students who, for financial reasons, are demonstrably unable to raise the necessary personal contribution in full, the Association of Friends and Sponsors of the Cologne University of Music and Dance has made a sum available to support students at the Cologne location. Under certain conditions, students can receive a grant from these limited funds. Please note: It is not possible to cover the full amount of the student's own contribution.
You can find more information on the application procedure and conditions on Ilias.
