The Juilliard School has signed an agreement that would establish a satellite music institute in Tianjin, China, a plan that marks its first expansion beyond its New York City campus. China Daily reports that the institute, planned in a country where many American and European institutions recruit musicians, is expected to be Juilliard’s only such institute in East Asia. It would also be the only center in the region where prospective students can audition for admission to Juilliard in New York. The exact programs to be offered at the institute will be determined by the results of a feasibility study, which began this month.
