Degree and Diploma Programs in Collaborative Piano

NOTE: I am currently in the process of adding links to program information at each of these schools in alphabetical order. Because I simply haven't got time to keep track of the people teaching at nearly 100 institutions, I will be initially listing only program info and institutional links. If you are an administrator or faculty member at one of these schools and would like to have up-to-date faculty information (or any additional information) listed, either leave a comment or email me at collaborativepiano [at] gmail dot com and I would be glad to include it in your school's posting.

First of all, this list is not complete. Since the field of collaborative piano is a constantly growing field, there are an ever-increasing number of programs available, only some of which have web documentation. The programs at the schools below are generally listed as being in Collaborative Piano, Piano Accompanying, Piano Accompanying and Chamber Music, Piano Chamber Music, Vocal Opera Coaching, or Piano Accompaniment. If you have any schools to add to the list, feel free to either post a comment or email me. This list will be constantly updated as new information is gleaned.

    Is there a difference between a collaborative piano degree and an accompaniment degree?

    ReplyDelete
  11. There isn't really much difference between these types of degrees. There used to be distinctions between "vocal" and "instrumental" degrees, but these have vanished recently. There are a few specialist degrees left in "vocal coaching".

    Again, my advice is to take a look at the teacher of the program, the curriculum, the school, and the track record of the program and the graduates of it rather than what the degree is titled.

      There are also some AD/Diploma programs only focused on opera or vocal area.
      Several Collaborative Piano programs in US also have a heavy study in opera like UM or the Manhattan School of Music (Vocal Track).

    someone asked about a musical theater accompanying degree program... i am very interested in musical theater accompanying as well and wanted to share how i've gotten my fill of it in school. i got my mm at university of michigan and am now getting my dma... they have a big MT department and i was able to work with some of the pianists in it. i took a year long seminar on problems one might encounter in the MT world (arranging, transposing, realizing better accompaniments than the printed ones, and a repertoire study) with a pianist on the faculty, then later played for one of their shows with another pianist/conductor. they also offered to let me accompany dance classes and rehearsals for that experience. if someone is interested in that line of work, i suggest that you look for a school with a good MT department like michigan, cincinnati, etc, and just make yourself available to the department. often, MT departments are hurting for good pianists... although, i've found keeping up my classical studies as well keeps me enriched. later in my life, i would be interested in teaching the MT side of collaborative piano.

    Just wondering if you know of any good schools that have undergraduate degrees in collaborative piano?..

    ReplyDelete
  32. Nope.

    My opinion is that pianists should get a Bachelor of Music degree either as a piano major or piano concentrator, then major in collaborative piano at the Master's Degree.

    My main concern with undergraduate collaborative piano degrees: there is a perception that pianists in these programs are merely cheap labor pools for voice and string departments, with a very real danger that they will complete their degrees without adequate skills to prepare them for either graduate programs in the field or professional life.

    Wow! What a great resource! I've been a musical director for years and am looking into getting a masters in collaborative piano. It's really a shame that no one offers a degree with an emphasis in musical directing/accompanying for theater because everyone I know just makes it up as they go along. I'm much more of a MT lover than an opera lover and the thought of dealing with opera divas for 2 years is not appealing at all.

    Do you think church organists, opera coaches, musical theatre accompanists (collaborators etc.) should be singers, actors, directors, producers, conductors or pianists as 1st priority? Many undergrad, graduate, diploma, certificate programs do not adequately prepare or inform the student as to the skills needed or that these career options are available. How many accompanists do we know who are NOT pianists, they are primarily singers, dancers, conductors who then find out they have to learn keyboard skills. Arguments continue over acting versus dancing versus singing skill for casting.
