Be your potential. Thrive in our changing musical world!

COSA Canada at Mount Allison: Summer Vocal Intensive - June 9-16, 2024


COSA Canada and Mount Allison University have created an experience for singers and collaborative pianists to grow and thrive in today's changing world. It is presented in two pathways: The "Artist on the Rise" pathway, for grade 12, undergraduate and avocational singers, and the "Emerging Professional Artist" pathway for graduate-level artists and beyond.

The geographical location is an invitation to deep learning -  nestled in our beautiful Sackville campus in Canada's Atlantic provinces. This immersive singing environment is focussed on process, where the end product is YOU, emerging an informed and capable artist armed with transferable skills for career resilience!

This program offers interactive workshops on career-building, making your way as an artist -  in - and outside of the arts, networking strategies, best practices for auditioning, arts advocacy and communicating with charisma, confidence, and authenticity. The world-renowned voice and coaching faculty will design collaborative and personalized lessons and performing opportunities to develop as a compelling storyteller and artist. Learning by doing will include concert performances and the opportunity to perform in Offenbach's La Chanson de Fortunio.

We are proud to offer audition-applications without fees and private, non-billeted accommodation with meals.
