The Wagner Society of New York intends to nominate a student or emerging artist to participate in the Bayreuth Festival for one week in the summer of 2025 through its Stipendiat Program. Attendees will attend performances of Das Rheingold (August 15, 2025), Parsifal (August 17, 2025), and Siegfried (August 18, 2025), as well as the Scholarship Concert (August 16, 2025).
Nominees are not limited to vocalists or instrumentalists; our goal is to select the individual be positioned to benefit from the Bayreuth experience in a broad sense. The Wagner Society has previously sponsored a variety of artists, including a scenic designer, a filmmaker, a tenor, a conductor, and an arts administrator.
For consideration for Summer, 2025, nominees should send a letter of interest and a CV to info@WagnerSocietyNY.org with the subject line “Bayreuth Stipendium”. The deadline for submissions is November 25, 2024. For more information, see our Bayreuth Stipendium page online here.
