Clazz International Music Festival

Clazz International Music Festival will be following Covid guidelines and precautions. We are keeping up with the latest news, and hopeful that we will be meeting in person this summer in Arcidosso, Italy. However we are currently making plans to pivot online if needed hosted through our friends at www.stringmasters.com. We will be making this final decision by May 15th, 2021, and be updating all participants regularly until that time. In the case that we do change to online for this summer, tuition costs will be significantly reduced, and informed to all applicants in a timely manner.

Thank you,
Matt and the Clazz Team

Festival Application and Fees
Audition Recordings

As a part of your application, we are asking for two contrasting recent recordings showcasing your current level and musicianship. If you feel comfortable recording a classical work, and a jazz (or another style) work, that would be ideal. Otherwise, if you are most confident in one style, please vary the works by tempo, time period, composer, etc. These recordings will be used to evaluate your acceptance to Clazz, ensemble placement, and taken into consideration for possible scholarship, for those who fill out the Financial Aid form.

Payment Information

Payment instructions will be sent in order to use PayPal, Venmo, Revolut, or U.S. mail. Once you submit the application, you will be emailed with instructions of how to complete payments using your desired method of payment.
