Profile

IPAI Bavaria believes in identifying and nurturing young artists, meeting them where they are, and taking them to the next step of their career. We want to inspire creativity and help artists remember why they chose music. Our faculty are united in our belief that there is room for every artistic voice, especially those who find non-traditional career paths and that a full, balanced, and joyful life encompasses much more than just performing. We want to empower young artists to discover their passions (artistically and beyond) and give them the tools, network, skills, and encouragement to bring their passions to fruition. Numbers are intentionally limited so that our faculty can get to know each young artist individually and create a comprehensive experience that meets their personal goals. We use the audition and the potential candidates application responses to see if both IPAI Bavaria and the artist are a good match.
