Monteverdi Apprentices showcase at Messums Wiltshire: Recital Various

Approved

On 4 March 2019, the Monteverdi Apprentices and members of the Monteverdi Choir, under the guidance of Sir John Eliot Gardiner, presented a showcase recital in the stunning surroundings of the recently-restored thirteenth-century tithe barn at Messums Wiltshire.

Now in its eight iteration, the Monteverdi Apprentice Programme continues to have a deep impact upon the development of all these young singers, past and present: extending their musical horizons and broadening their career aspirations. It is difficult to exaggerate the benefits the programme offers in terms of its varied opportunities, enabling the apprentices to work closely with musicians of the highest calibre and under the direction of one of the world’s finest conductors and interpreters of classical music. While this pioneering initiative has been imitated and augmented by other European ensembles it remains pre-eminent in its field and is heavily oversubscribed.

After having been advertised to all the major UK and European conservatoires, universities and cathedrals, the 2018/2019 Programme received 134 initial applications. Based upon a review of these written submissions and letters of recommendation, 51 candidates were invited for a first audition in July 2018. Thereafter, 25 proceeded to the second and final round on 23 August 2018 after which the current Apprentices were chosen. The season began in bombastic fashion with a two-part European tour of Verdi’s Requiem in September and November, preceded by an introductory workshop led by members of the Monteverdi Choir.
