In addition to qualifying through the intensive audition process, the five musicians to be selected (trumpet, trumpet, horn, trombone, tuba) must meet the academic requirements of the University of Miami.
The STAMPS Scholarship provides: all tuition fees, room, and board paid; career guidance by the Frost faculty, mentoring by prominent guest artists; support for concert tours and study abroad as a quintet, performance opportunities with the Frost Symphony and Henry Mancini Institute Orchestras; and participation opportunities in recording sessions, film sessions, television specials, and cross-genre programing.
