Hinton Bass Institute

Summer Programs at the conservatory range from one to two weeks long and are for participants of varying ages from middle school age through adult, depending on the program. Students work and perform with resident and guest faculty, participate in daily master classes, build skills in individual and group coaching sessions, and gain insight into audition and performance techniques, among other skills. Participants have full use of our facilities, including practice and study rooms. As time permits, you may explore the wider Oberlin community, including libraries, restaurants, biking and walking trails, the Allen Memorial Art Museum, Apollo Theater, and more. At the conclusion of each session, students may take part in a recital, a group performance, or another program to share and showcase what has been learned.
