"Playing with other harpists from all over North America and learning about internationally recognized professionals gave me a new perspective on this profession. I met amazing people who have become very good friends."

Counselor/Apprentice Position

The Young Artist’s Harp Seminar seeks several counselor/apprentices each season to assist with all seminar activities. Applicants must be between the ages of 20 and 26, have completed one year of college, have a strong background in harp, and include the harp as an important focus of their daily lifestyle.

Counselors will be required to assist in daily supervision of students both on campus and off site as we engage in area recreational activities. The counselor will be required to assist in transportation of students to recreational activities: a driver’s license and vehicle large enough to transport a concert grand harp are necessary. The counselor may also assist in teaching and leadership of harp-related activities and workshops. Strong ensemble and music theory skills are preferred.

We are looking for individuals with high moral and artistic values, who will serve not only as supervisors, but also as mentors and role models to our students. In exchange for these duties, the counselor will receive full tuition, room, and board for the 2008 Young Artist’s Harp Seminar season, and participate fully in the YAHS program (private lessons not included). Participation in harp ensemble is required.

If you are interested in applying for the counselor/apprentice position, please fill out and fax (770-794-9616) or e-mail the application to us.
