Masterclass i lieder och romanser

Dorothy Irvings Stipendiefond offers a masterclass in lieder and romanser (art songs) in Falun, Sweden, during summer 2026. The program invites eight song duos consisting of singers and pianists to participate in an intensive week-long course from June 23-29, 2026. The masterclass is led by renowned singer Sir Thomas Allen, actress Stina Ekblad, and pianist Kristian Attila. Participants will have the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and skills in art song interpretation under the guidance of these distinguished artists. The course is free of charge for selected participants and concludes with a final concert at Nybrokyrkan in Falun on June 29. Applicants must apply as duos and should have their primary musical activity based in Sweden. The fund covers the cost of instruction, while participants arrange and pay for their own travel and accommodation, though affordable apartment rentals are available through the fund.
