The mission of the Taki Alsop Conducting Fellowship is to mentor, support, and promote women conductors as they advance in their professional careers.
The Taki Fellowship is currently a two-year award that primarily includes intensive coaching and mentoring with Marin Alsop and other music industry professionals. The TACF honorarium for Fellows is $25,000 over the two years; other awards are distributed on a merit basis.
Since 2003, thirty-six women conductors have been chosen to participate in the program and they hold 20 music director or chief conductors posts around the world.
