Dr. Weinert will join master teachers Robert Gutter, Ovidiu Balan and Charles Gambetta from June 20-July 2, 2015 for the Institute’s Conducting Choral Masterpieces workshop, a new program designed to provide conductors with opportunities that most choral and instrumental curricula are not able to offer. The workshop repertoire includes the Mozart Requiem, Brahms Ein deutsches Requiem and the Poulenc Gloria. Participating conductors will each receive 200+ minutes of instructional time on the podium including sessions with piano sextet and vocal quartet, full chorus with piano sextet, full orchestra and orchestra with full chorus; and all conductors will perform on two of 4 public concerts.

Its annual summer courses attract conductors from around the world to Bacau, Romania for 4 weeks of intensive conducting study with 4 veteran professional conductors, each with decades of teaching experience. The Institute has earned its reputation as an outstanding educational institution through 15 years of consistently providing conductors with unparalleled opportunities for artistic growth and practical experience.
