In addition, there are many performance opportunities using the great spaces at the California Institute of the Arts.

SEATTLE OPERA YOUNG ARTIST PROGRAM PROFESSIONAL

A wide range of professional musical artists and entrepreneurs visits our campus to perform and discuss their art, experiences and vision with our students. The unique music curriculum at CSSSA features instruction in theory, music history, African Drumming and Dance, Indonesian Gamelan, individual instruction, and collaborative efforts with other CSSSA departments such as dance, theater, and creative writing. An all-star lineup of former Young Artists will perform, including 2006 Richard Tucker award-winner Lawrence Brownlee and 2007 Richard Tucker award-winner Brandon Jovanovich. The program is at the forefront of the exploration of an array of musical genre that reflects our multi-cultural society. She went on for further study at the Marlboro Music Festival, the Metropolitan Opera’s Lindemann Young Artist Development Program, as well as the Seattle Opera and Central City Opera’s Young Artist Training Programs, among others. Seattle Opera will celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Young Artists Program at their 2008 Gala 'Springtime Serenade' on April 26 at McCaw Hall. The CSSSA Music Program is increasingly relevant in a time when educational programs in the arts are vanishing from our cultural landscape. They engage in challenging developmental programs in the company of peers who share their exceptional abilities and love for the arts.

These students come to CSSSA from all over California to develop their skills at the highest level.

Every summer the California State Summer School for the Arts welcomes 70 to 80 music students for exploration in the performing arts.
