Graduate Assistantships & Tuition Waivers for Hornists at Illinois State
The Illinois State University School of Music anticipates a Horn
Studio Graduate Assistantship Vacancy and Graduate Tuition Waivers
for hornists for 2007-2008.
The Horn Studio Studio Graduate Assistantship is currently filled
until Fall 2007, but Non-Studio Assistantships and Graduate Tuition
Waivers for hornists are currently available. Hornists with secondary
skills (audio technology, music technology, administrative or
classroom experience, etc.) may be awarded non-studio GA positions
for 2006-07 and be considered for the Horn Studio position for
2007-08.
Assistantship Stipend is $6,300. per year plus a full Tuition Waiver worth
$5,100. per year for Illinois residents and $10,650. per year for
non-residents. The assistantship is a renewable award worth up to
$16,950. per year for non-residents. In addition to performing in a
graduate brass or woodwind quintet and large ensemble, other duties
may include instruction of studio overload/instruction of studio
during faculty tours, assisting with Horn Choir and Master Class,
coaching student chamber ensembles, studio teaching, classroom
teaching, music technology or audio recording, depending on the
candidate's interests and experience and departmental needs.
Additional performance opportunities may be available in several
regional orchestras.
Fall Horn Studio enrollment was 20 horn students, but we're looking
for talented students to replace this year's graduating class.
Please see the attached studio photo and guest artist poster to let
you see what we are up to. Hermann Baumann, Barry Tuckwell, Gail
Williams, Froydis Wekre, Eric Ruske, Martin Hackleman, Daniel
Bourgue, hornists with the U.S. Marine, Army Field, and Navy Bands
and hornists from the Philadelphia Orchestra, Paris Opera, and the
St. Louis, Houston, Baltimore and National Symphonies have presented
Recitals, Concerts and Master Classes at ISU. Since 1997 all
graduate students have won positions in military bands, doctoral
fellowships and teaching positions.
