Artist Diploma in Organ in New Haven United States | Yale University

Yale School of Music's organ program equips students for professional paths as performers, educators, and sacred music specialists. Participants engage in a departmental seminar covering the full spectrum of organ repertoire across historical periods, while receiving personalized instruction from resident faculty and distinguished guest artists who visit campus annually. The Institute of Sacred Music provides career placement assistance for organ students, who are dually enrolled in both the School of Music and the Institute. Prospective students must submit applications to both institutions. Yale's organ scholars enjoy access to an exceptional collection of instruments, including: the three-manual H. Frank Bozyan Memorial Organ (von Beckerath, 1971) in Dwight Memorial Chapel, Battell Chapel's three-manual Holtkamp organ (1951), Marquand Chapel's three-manual Skinner organ (1931) at the Divinity School, and Woolsey Hall's celebrated four-manual Newberry Memorial Organ (Skinner, 1928) - a world-famous Romantic instrument. Practice facilities feature two-manual instruments by Flentrop, Holtkamp, and Casavant in Woolsey Hall and the Institute, which also maintains five Steinway grands, a C.B. Fisk positive organ, and a Dowd harpsichord.
