Music Performance, Graduate Artist Diploma Locations  

The Artist Diploma is the highest-level performance designation offered at Park International Center for Music and provides an intensive and focused two-year study in performance and musical personality. The program is available to students who already possess a substantial solo repertoire and wish to spend time honing their craft under the guidance and support of their master instructor. Plus the extremely small size of the program allows faculty to invest significant time and personal attention to the development of each student.

The Artist Diploma at Park University is currently available in three instruments: Cello, Violin and Piano. It is extremely selective with only a few candidates admitted per year following a rigorous audition process and interview process. Artist Diploma candidates should possess a distinctive, individual artistic voice and be poised to begin a professional career that will have significant impact in their discipline. Students pursuing an Artist Diploma are awarded a full tuition scholarship for both years of the program, and they are often featured in special performances and events.

The highly-successful Artist Diploma at Park International Center for Music distinguishes itself through a combination of one-on-one lessons and coaching, mentorship, and performance opportunities. Artist Diploma students can tailor their curriculum to meet their specific goals and needs with built-in flexibility to allow for external engagements.
