Malko Academy for Young Conductors 2022-2024 was a very intense two-year training programme for young talents from Europe, aged 18-25.
The purpose of the academy was to give young, promising musicians a solid foundation in the skills of conducting, and to experience conducting professional orchestral musicians and choir singers.
Malko Academy for Young Conductors is currently closed.
It is currently uncertain whether a new Malko Academy class will start in the coming years. Please check this page for updates. If the Malko Academy for Young Conductors reopens, we will announce it here.
The academy was aimed at highly gifted musicians who already show exceptional promise in their instrumental or voice studies and who have a strong desire to one day become a top-class professional conductor. The lessons were mainly scheduled at weekends, starting Friday evening, and ending Sunday afternoon, thus enabling students to travel to Copenhagen from all over Europe. Occasionally, classes were be scheduled on weekdays in order to give students the possibility to follow a world class conductor working with the Danish National Symphony Orchestra.
