Guest Masterclass Request Form

If the Guest Masterclass will be a private event (for applied studio/department area only, no crew, no publicizing), please submit the above form at your earliest convenience.

If the Guest Masterclass will be a public event (advertised and open to the entire SOM community and general public with FOH and BOH staffing needs), please fill out the above form and allow 4-6 weeks of lead time.  All masterclasses that have a public audience music require registration for a free ticket through the HPC Box Office.  All audience members will need to follow the COVID policies, current as of the event date.  Updated information can be found here. 

In order to submit a payment request, faculty sponsoring the masterclass should complete a Visitor Guest Payment Request Form, which includes details on W-9 and direct deposit paperwork needed for those receiving payment.  Payment will be issued within 30 days of a complete request submission - all W-9 and direct deposit paperwork should be sent directly to Ben Polancich, BPOLANCI@depaul.edu

A few additional notes regarding guest masterclasses:

-We are very limited on available space, so please use studio class time when possible.

-Masterclasses which are private (School of Music community only) are highly encouraged.
