Past Institutes

Every summer, College Audition Advantage helps driven, talented high school and college age singers reach their full performance potential in just ten days at Music Mountain. The participants, coming from both classical and musical theatre backgrounds, pack their days with performance workshops, private lessons, practice sessions, and more in preparation for the final showcase on the last day of the institute.

Each day of the program consists of:
  • a private voice lesson with Deborah Lifton or a guest artist coaching session
  • a guest artist masterclass and Q&A
  • a movement and acting class to improve stage presence and connection to character
  • a formal or informal information session on topics such as audition etiquette and vocal health.

"This program was life changing! I grew so much as an artist and as a person. I loved the large amounts of individual attention, and I felt like everyone there really believed in me"   -- Molly Hill, CAA Alum


​"Being chosen to participate in this program was one of my greatest blessings; it is the absolute least I can do to recommend this program to any serious performer" -- Jamila Drecker Waxman, CAA Alum
