Applications for the 2024/2025 VOCES8 Future Talent Award Programme are now open.

About the VOCES8 Future Talent Award

In the 2020-21 season we launched a joint initiative with fellow music charity Future Talent to provide opportunities for talented young singers from low-income backgrounds. The VOCES8 Future Talent award provides bespoke training and performing opportunities for up to 8 young singers ages 13 to 18.

Singers receive mentoring, career and general musical development advice alongside practical music training. The programme culminates in fully funded places at the VOCES8 International Festival and Summer School.

Applications for the 2024/2025 VOCES8 Future Talent Award Programme are now open. Singers interested in applying should download and read the application guidelines and visit the Future Talent website to apply.
