Festival Registration

To begin registration, click on the button at the bottom of the page.

Early bird registration deadline for singers, orchestra, and observers is December 15, 2024. A completed registration should include a non-refundable $50 registration fee. After December 15, the registration fee is $100. If the festival should need to cancel the festival for any reason, all deposits and the registration fee will be refunded.

Payments can be made by check or by credit or debit card through Paypal at paypal.me/classicalmusicfest. Payments by check should be made payable to Classical Music Festival and mailed to Classical Music Festival, Attn: Cathy Griffin, 4721 Lake Front Drive, Norman, OK 73072. Festival balances can be made in 3 equal payments: Feb. 1, April 1, and June 1.

Early registration is best since space is limited and in order to receive your preferred housing. Although we will accept late applicants as space is available, we cannot fully guarantee participation since positions in the orchestra, chorus, and piano seminar fill quickly.

You will be informed within two weeks of receipt of your application whether or not you have been accepted. If your application is not accepted, your deposit will be voided and returned. Upon acceptance, you will receive a letter or email confirmation along with a statement showing your balance due and payment schedule. All balances are due by June 1 and are non-refundable after that date except in case of a certifiable emergency explained in writing.

• Chorus Registration - If you are applying as a new member of the chorus, a letter explaining your experience suffices. Returning chorus members or members of choral groups need not submit letters of recommendation or audition materials. Basic cost is $1,550 plus the $50 registration fee.

• Orchestra Registration - If you are applying as a new orchestra member, please provide: biographical information detailing your educational and performance experience along with a performance sample (Youtube link, digital link, MP3 file, or mailed DVD/CD). Former enrollees do not need to send a letter of recommendation. All performers are chosen in advance on the basis of their application materials and must be accepted for placement prior to their arrival in Europe. Basic cost is $1,075 plus the $50 registration fee for single room housing at Gastehaus Burgenland. Other housing options available for an additional cost.

• Observer Registration - Simply complete the online registration. Basic cost is $1,650 plus the $50 registration fee.

• Piano Seminar - The piano seminar will not be offered in 2025 but we hope to be able to offer it again in 2026.
