Työnimike: Chamber Pianist Lecturer

Työnkuvaus:
The University of the Arts Helsinki is an international forerunner in education and research in the field of arts and solidifies the arts as a force that reforms society. The University of the Arts Helsinki's wide selection of programmes in the field of arts and productive dialogue between teaching and research make the University of the Arts Helsinki a unique university on an international scale.

At the University of the Arts Helsinki, you will be part of a diverse and vibrant community that fosters our artistic heritage and provides society with new perspectives and energy. The University of the Arts Helsinki was launched in 2013 upon the merging of the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts, Sibelius Academy, and Theatre Academy Helsinki. The Sibelius Academy is the highest-level music educator in Finland, training artists skilled in independent artistic work, teachers, and other music professionals.

The Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki is opening posts for

TWO CHAMBER PIANIST LECTURERS

for a fixed-term post of five years during the period of 1 August 2019 - 31 July 2024. The fixed nature of the contract is based on the need for flexibility, as set by the demands to continuously develop education and reform teaching.

The Lecturer will work in the Department of Piano, Accordion, Guitar and Kantele in Helsinki, one of the ten departments of the Faculty of Classical Music. The chamber pianists' area of responsibility within the department's education is, however, directed primarily for students in other departments, especially those in the string and wind instrument departments.

More information about the department can be found via the University of the Arts Helsinki website: https://www.uniarts.fi/en/study-options/piano

The Lecturer's tasks

The total working time of the Lecturer is 1,624 hours per annum, including 455 hours of contact teaching. In addition to the actual chamber pianist tasks, the work may also include teaching of chamber and piano music. Carrying the assigned tasks in full will require, on the whole, working weekly with students and collaborating with professors teaching string and wind instruments as well as other teachers, including the head of department and chamber pianist colleagues.

The approximately 300 students of the string and wind instrument departments play the majority of their repertoire with a pianist, and students from other departments may also need a pianist in their instrument studies. A key task of the chamber pianist is to perform the repertoire of students (an average of 25-30 string and wind instrument students / academic year) in theses and other concerts arranged by Sibelius Academy, on all university education levels, if necessary. The tasks include working as a chamber pianist in admissions and master classes arranged by the academy in the different instruments. The chamber pianist may also be tasked with guiding chamber ensembles and piano students.

In addition to teaching and public performance tasks, the Lecturer will actively take part in planning, arranging and developing the education and artistic work falling under the teaching field in question. They will monitor the development of their field, participate in the department's regular meetings and work groups, and when necessary, the work of the administrative bodies of University of the Arts Helsinki as well as other development work.
