Paris scholarships for musicians
The Bern Office for Culture is offering five cultural scholarships in New York, Paris and Berlin in 2014. Musicians can apply for two six-month residencies in Paris.
Two scholarships for professional musicians from Bern will be awarded in Paris next year. The artists are invited to spend either January to June or July to December 2014 in the Canton of Bern's furnished studio at the Cité Internationale des Arts. In addition to free accommodation, the scholarship includes a monthly sum of CHF 3,000 towards living and travel expenses. The scholarship is not suitable for stays with children.
The prerequisites for admission to the adjudication are a professional performance record, legal residence and/or professional cultural activity in the Canton of Bern for at least two years. Applications must be submitted by April 30, 2013 at the latest and will be judged by the Music Commission. The documents are available on the website of the Office of Culture:
