SAVE THE DATE: June 18 to July 1, 2023. The application will open in January.
Music Intensive
Students who enroll in the Summer Institute's music experience course, Music Intensive, will experience life as a Wheaton College Conservatory student. Like our undergraduate students, those attending the summer music program will study with Conservatory faculty in private lessons, master classes, and chamber ensemble experiences. The course is designed to guide young artists as they grow in their faith and understanding of what it means to be a Christian musician. Other activities include faculty recitals, student performances, repertoire study, and exploring the arts in the city of Chicago!
