The Juilliard School is a conservatory offering pre-professional training in its programs for music, dance and drama, with a highly competitive applicant pool. Its three divisions are College, Pre-College, and Evening (for adults). Julliard students regularly present performances, free or otherwise.
Fully-staged productions open to the public take place in the Peter Jay Sharp Theater, seating almost 1,000 people, or the Stephanie P. McClelland Drama Theater, seating about 200.
Paul Hall is where most musicians present recitals during their training and where many master classes take place. Morse Hall, a smaller space with complete flexibility in seating configuration, is also used for recitals, master classes, meetings, and other events.
Alice Tully Hall is the site of concerts by students and professionals, soloists and ensembles. It is home to the Juilliard Orchestra, the Juilliard Symphony, and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
