Aspire: Five-Week Music Performance Intensive

The intensive is meant to replicate a true Berklee College of Music undergraduate experience.

As at the college, you will select one principal instrument (voice included) to study during the program. Your instructors will be Berklee's world-class faculty and visiting artists, supporting you in a combination of private instruction, instrumental or vocal labs, ensembles, theory in performance, musicianship training, and electives. While classes are designed to challenge and expand your musical skill set, your course load will be appropriate for your abilities.

Students who do well in their core classes can receive three college credits upon completion of the program.

Learn more about individual classes, elective options, and how to earn college credit.

*These activites are optional to attend. 

All students 15 and older with six months of playing or singing experience are welcome to attend. Most students who attend this program are of high school and college age.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security requires that any participating student who is not a U.S. citizen apply for an F-1 student visa. Students may not attend the program with a B-1 visa, B-2 visa, or ESTA visa waiver. Please visit our International Students page for more information. 

Please note: This program has limited capacity. Submission of registration materials alone does not guarantee participation in the program. You will secure your spot by paying in full. When the program capacity has been reached, registrants who have not paid in full will be placed on a waitlist.
