Offers: Modest grants to help aspiring professional organists
Frequency: Twice annually
PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF APPLICATION DATES
Closing dates: 30 November and 31 May
Areas considered: Further studies; hire of instruments; cost of travel and subsistence for auditions and engagements; other expenses incurred in the pursuit of an organist's career.
Preference will be given to students seeking assistance towards specific projects, rather than continuing academic tuition, e.g. summer schools; special lessons in addition to normal studies; opportunities for playing on historic instruments in the context of further study; practice fees and, in certain instances, the cost of travel for auditions. Grants will normally be limited to a contribution towards such costs.
