Pre-College Auditions 

Colburn has a Music Academy, which is an equivalent of a pre-college training essential for exceptional young performers like you, who want to dedicate themselves to music with an eye on becoming a professional. 

​

Its comprehensive curriculum includes private instruction with top faculty, studio classes and chamber music, music theory and history, and ear training, as well as enrichment studies in career development and personal presentation skills. Students perform regularly, both on campus and throughout Los Angeles, and participate in master classes. Alumni have gone on to study at top music schools, including Juilliard, the Curtis Institute of Music, and the Colburn Conservatory of Music.

SFCM’s Pre-College division provides an immersive set of programs that instill the value of music in youth 18 and under. It provides an artistic framework and tailored instruction for the next generation of musicians. 

 

Its programs integrate private lessons with musicianship courses, small and large ensemble experiences, master classes, jury assessments, and performance opportunities, with the goal of making music a core part of children’s lives.

Within the Pre-College division, there are three programs that offer different opportunities for students in music.
