Music Colleges & Schools

The four London music colleges run junior schools each Saturday during term times.  Entrance is by audition.  The colleges aim to provide a balanced musical education which normally includes instrumental or vocal lessons, theory and playing in various ensembles.  They provide a great musical experience for the young talented and aspiring musicians!

Guildhall School of Music and Drama - Juniors

Trinity Laban Conservatoire - Juniors

Royal Academy of Music - Juniors

Royal College of Music - Juniors

For string players and pianists the Yehudi Menuhin School in Cobham provides a musically biased full time education for those with "exceptionally musical ability".
