Chamber Music and Arts Singapore’s Apprenticeship programme (formerly our Internship programme) is designed for Secondary School and JC students who are keen on acquiring hands-on experience in arts project management.  Selected apprentices will work with the CMAS team to bring about the fruition of a specially designed themed project presenting formal Evening Concerts, interactive Concerts for Children and activities within the communities.  Unlike other internship programmes, the CMAS team offers key decision-making roles to the students so they can see their efforts materialise into tangible outcomes.  This programme usually spans a period of 3 months each year.  Schools can enquire for further details via contact@chambermusicarts.com.sg

Students from DHS Music Elective Programme and NYGH Higher Music Programme, had a chance to sign up for an internship spot with the TTKGS to bring to fruition ‘The Poetry in Life ~ Schumann, Adès, Brahms’.

From physical marketing, public relations, social media, customer service direct enquiries, fundraising, artistic programme, front of house, backstage production, to in-hall leaders — our interns each undertook pivotal roles to bring about our Evening Concerts, Concerts for Children and our host of activities in the community this May 2018.

Students of Nanyang Girls’ High School are outstanding in their resilience, diligence and abilities.  Despite juggling a full schedule at school with their studies and CCA commitments, a select few from the Higher Music Program sign up for an internship opportunity with the TTK Grand Series each year.

This year, a pair of Secondary 4 students worked within Beethoven Heroic Years to provide the project with marketing, customer service and production support.  They were also assisted by their seniors, a group of strong and enthusiastic returning interns who have now graduated from NYGH to Hwa Chong Institute !

Our internship programme with the NYGH Higher Music Program gives us so much impetus to continue presenting great music to the communities in Singapore. These youths bring with them seemingly limitless optimism and enthusiasm. With them working in teams towards the fruition of ‘Beethoven Last Years’, it was their sense of responsibility and commitment to quality, that allowed a project of such gravity and scope to become a reality for Singaporean audiences.

We hope the Sec 3 and Sec 4 Higher Music Program students of NYGH who were involved in ‘Beethoven Last Years’ ~ taking care of areas from marketing, ticketing, production, front of house, customer service to in-hall responsibilities, for the project ~ are proud of their work !

In the first half of 2015, 13 secondary 3 students from Nanyang Girls’ High Higher Music Program interned with the Concert Series, to follow the entire process of the production of ‘Transcending the Ordinary’ ~ late works of Schubert.

In these 5 months, they were able to fulfill their potentials and grow their abilities as they were closely guided and entrusted with work in research and writing, electronic marketing, physical marketing, customer service, ticketing, production, front of house, backstage, in-hall responsibilities, and artists’ care.

These girls are intelligent, and enthusiastic. They also each have their own strengths that we nurtured through this programme. It was indeed a treat for the Series to see these 13 interns grow and experience what it means to be ready for work in the society.
