Job description

About this opportunity:

NWS offers musicians the opportunity to apply for placement on the substitute list only (without necessarily aiming to be actively considered for a fellowship), using a rolling deadline. Open year-round for all orchestral instruments, plus saxophone, euphonium, and guitar.

Thank you for your interest in the New World Symphony!

Founded by Michael Tilson Thomas in 1987, New World Symphony is a place for early-career musicians to hone their artistic voice, reconnect with the joy of making music and perform alongside some of the greatest artists of our time. Every New World Symphony Fellowship is tuition-free and includes a furnished apartment, living stipend, travel grant and leadership training.

The New World Symphony has gained an international reputation for the quality and style of its multifaceted performances. Under the artistic direction of Stéphane Denève the New World Symphony regularly performs to sold-out halls at the New World Center in Miami Beach and the Knight Concert Hall at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami. The New World Symphony fellowship program consists of an in-depth course of performance and instructional activities designed to expand the musical and professional horizons of NWS Fellows. Since 1988, more than 1300 musicians have participated in the fellowship program. To date, 90% of NWS alumni have embarked on careers in music, a great many in full-time orchestra positions.
