<p class="has-text-align-left">Established in 1947 by celebrated accompanist Gwendolyn Koldofsky, the USC Thornton Keyboard Collaborative Arts program was the first of its kind anywhere in the world. With an internationally acclaimed faculty, and graduates who rank among the most notable leaders and innovators in the field of collaboration, the program has remained an influential force for over half a century.</p> <p>Administered by the USC Thornton Keyboard Studies Department, the USC Thornton Keyboard Collaborative Arts program nurtures aspiring pianists by enriching and guiding them through their study of collaboration in chamber music, song repertoire and opera. The keyboard collaborative arts faculty welcomes and encourages repertoire composed by marginalized and/or underrepresented groups, including but not limited to women and members of BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. In addition to regular study, students may choose to improve their strengths in foreign language diction or opera coaching. Keyboard collaborative arts students are also granted the rare opportunity of interacting with many of the stellar faculty of the USC Thornton School of Music in other performance areas, including keyboard studies, strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion and vocal arts & opera.</p> </div> </div> <div class="wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center full-width-right-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:50%"> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-full"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="920" src="https://music.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/1024x920_KeyboardCollab.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-62317" srcset="https://music.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/1024x920_KeyboardCollab.jpg 1024w, https://music.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/1024x920_KeyboardCollab-300x270.jpg 300w, https://music.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/1024x920_KeyboardCollab-768x690.jpg 768w, https://music.usc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/1024x920_KeyboardCollab-800x719.jpg 800w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure> </div> </div> </div> <div style="height:80px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div> <div class="wp-block-group accordion-container horizontal is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <div class="wp-block-group accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <h2 class="wp-block-heading accordion-tab">Graduate Programs</h2> <div class="wp-block-group accordion-content is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"> <div class="wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow"> <h3 class="wp-block-heading"><meta charset="utf-8">Master of Music</h3> <h5 class="wp-block-heading">Keyboard Collaborative Arts Performance</h5> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-css-opacity short"/> <h6 class="wp-block-heading">2 years | 30 units</h6> <p>The MM in keyboard collaborative arts is a two-year, 30-unit program consisting of individual instruction in collaborative piano, song interpretation master class, chamber music interpretation master class, interpretation of baroque music and music history.
