To lead future artistic research with a unique historical resource.

The Orpheus Institute is currently seeking to appoint a full-time Research Fellow who will bring vision for the use of a unique collection of early books and scores as a resource for artistic research.

This collection of some twenty thousand items (including musical manuscripts, facsimiles, historical and modern editions), dedicated to music from the 17th/18th centuries, has been assembled over fifty years by a single artist, a world-renowned performer of baroque music, and will be entrusted to the Orpheus Institute. The Research Fellow will design, plan, coordinate and lead innovative projects exploring the potential of this unique collection as a research instrument for musical practice.

Application deadline: 6 September 2019.

Earlier applications are welcome; we will begin reviewing applications on 19 August.
