Master of Music in Collaborative Piano

Department

Program Overview

Boston Conservatory at Berklee's collaborative piano program offers practical training for pianists interested in branching out beyond the concert stage to become professional accompanists, coaches, and music collaborators.

Because the program trains pianists on how to lead rehearsals and coach musicians, there is a heavy focus on operatic repertoire and coaching. The program also provides students with a wide variety of collaborative performance experiences that cover everything from song literature to symphonic orchestras, chamber ensembles, and pit orchestras for dance, opera, and theater productions. This continual hands-on practice helps students master a vast catalog of repertoire and grow comfortable collaborating with artists in various styles and settings.
