In 2024, The English Concert launched the UK Fellowship, a new professional development programme for emerging early musicians. The Fellowship offers recently graduated (or about to graduate) instrumentalists and singers a grant towards their professional development, and the potential for opportunities to perform or cover roles in larger productions with The English Concert.
The English Concert in America (TECA), a nonprofit organisation established in 2009, promotes the performance and appreciation of baroque and classical music in the United States through its close relationship with The English Concert.
TECA’s Fellowship program, created in association with The Juilliard School’s Historical Performance faculty in New York and The English Concert, provides a select group of emerging young performers opportunities to continue to develop artistically at a critical stage in their education and professional life. Since its establishment in 2014, the Fellowship has been awarded to twenty-four Historical Performance graduates specialising in early music on period instruments and in 2024, we were delighted to welcome two alumni of the TECA Fellowship to join the orchestra as permanent members.
