This is an exceptional opportunity for a visionary artistic leader to shape one of the nation’s most respected recital and chamber music institutions at a moment of organizational strength and artistic vitality. The Artistic and Executive Director will lead Schubert Club’s efforts to meet three strategic goals: to reframe our understanding of classical music; to make equity and inclusion central to all we do; and to create meaningful connections for concert audiences, education program participants, and museum visitors. To achieve these goals, the Artistic and Executive Director will lead the development of new audiences, cultivate new and current artistic and community partnerships, build and diversify funding models, and establish new artistic directions while honoring the traditional canon.

Founded in 1882 and rooted deeply in the cultural fabric of St. Paul, Schubert Club is one of the oldest arts organizations in the United States and among the nation’s most respected classical music institutions. Its mission—to create inspiring musical experiences that contribute to the cultural vibrancy of the Twin Cities community—inspires a broad portfolio of programs that bring world-class artistry and meaningful musical experiences to audiences of all ages across the Twin Cities. Schubert Club’s artistic offerings span a vibrant array of concert series that reach diverse audiences. The International Artist Series remains a flagship recital series of national standing. The beloved Music in the Park Series, an independent organization until its merger with Schubert Club in 2010, presents distinguished chamber ensembles in an intimate neighborhood setting. Launched in 2014, Schubert Club Mix reimagines the recital experience through nontraditional venues, repertoire, and artistic collaborations. Accordo, a string collective of Minnesota Orchestra and Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra principal players, performs throughout the year in Minneapolis, while free weekly Courtroom Concerts highlight Minnesota-based performers and composers at Landmark Center—Schubert Club’s headquarters in downtown St. Paul—from October through April. As a founding member of The Arts Partnership, Schubert Club collaborates with leaders of the Ordway, Minnesota Opera, and The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra to support a vibrant performing arts ecosystem in downtown St. Paul, strengthening shared artistic goals, community engagement, and cultural vitality.

"Schubert Club is a thriving, historic, community-focused, internationally known music and education organization devoted to diversity in all we do. We are busy, big-hearted, and open-minded. While we honor our 143-year past, we are eager for our uncharted future, led by a new principal and our ‘small but mighty’ talented staff. We seek someone ready to understand who we are. We’re eager to work with a leader who recognizes the changing economics and tastes of our artistic landscape. As Board chair, I look forward to talking with you about joining our remarkable organization. I appreciate your interest in Schubert Club. " — Ann Juergens, President, Board of Directors
