MUSIC ACADEMY INTERNATIONAL
25th ANNIVERSARY SEASON

It is with great pride that we present our 25th Anniversary Season. Music Academy International has been an innovator in Young Artist Programs throughout the world for the past 25 years. MAI was the first YAP to produce fully staged operas with orchestra, we were the first to provide fully integrated career management services, and MAI is the only YAP that provides studios in Collaborative Piano, Dance, Musical Theatre, Opera, Orchestra & Technical Theatre in one all encompassing platform, the Trentino Music Festival, which celebrates its 10th Anniversary Season in beautiful Italy.

How do I apply to be a young artist at the Trentino Music Festival & how do I pay the audition fee? 
Each Studio page will detail application requirements via the ‘Apply Now!’ button, where you can also upload resumes and videos as necessary. You can then pay the audition fee and any further instalments via the the Payments page.
When do I find out if I have been accepted? 
Firstly, you will receive an automatic email to acknowledge receipt of your application (please check your junk folder if it doesn’t immediately go to your inbox). You will then receive an email confirming the outcome, once we have considered your resume & auditions videos accordingly.
As a young artist how might I fundraise for my tuition fees?
There are various ways you may consider fundraising for tuition fees. These range from creating a “GoFundMe” campaign, organising a recital in your local area or asking family & friends to make a tax deductible donation to ‘Music Academy International’ in their name, which we can then designate as a donation towards your fees. Please see the Payments page for a PDF download detailing further fundraising tips.
How do I travel to the Festival?
Air travel is to Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) & a shuttle bus will be available to book (details will be in the welcome information if accepted onto the program).
Can I bring friends and family to observe?
We would encourage family members & friends to visit & attend performances. If they want to venture out on weekends, the Festival is only a short drive/bus ride to historical cultural centres such as Venice, Verona, Innsbruck & Salzburg. Participants will be allowed ample time to explore the region & enjoy all that Italy has to offer.
If you have any other questions please let us know!
