Junior Guildhall Prospectus 2012 WELCOME to JUNIOR GUILDHALL Junior Guildhall Prospectus 2012 WELCOME TO JUNIOR GUILDHALL The Guildhall School of Music & Drama is one of Europe’s leading conservatoires, offering musicians, actors, stage managers and theatre technicians an inspiring environment in which to develop as artists and professionals. While the School’s main role is to provide the highest quality of education and professional training in higher education, the early training of talented children is regarded as fundamental with great importance and resources given to Junior Guildhall. Junior Guildhall is a specialist Saturday School offering advanced training to young people between the ages of 4 and 18. The students are able to combine their Guildhall training with their general education in local schools. They come together to experience and learn about music and drama under the guidance of staff drawn from London’s orchestras and freelance professionals. Most of the students go on to study their chosen discipline full-time at undergraduate level, eventually making careers in the profession, though others can, and do, move into totally different fields. Links between the full-time courses of the School and Junior Guildhall are strong and many professors teach on both programmes. Junior Guildhall students are often invited to participate in the School’s events and, on Saturdays, the entire facilities of the School are given over to Junior Guildhall. Visitors are always welcome – if you wish to arrange a visit please contact the Junior Guildhall office. Regardless of their ultimate direction, students find that the professional artistic environment of the Guildhall School provides them with valuable life skills and the means to develop their individual talents to the full. The fulfilment of self-expression and self-discovery together with skills of communication and responsibility will have an enduring influence upon their lives.

This comprehensive programme is carefully designed to give pupils a balanced exposure to the discipline of music through individual instrumental lessons, chamber music, orchestras, choirs, workshop activity, classes and frequent performance opportunities. Students receive the type of considered personal attention that young musicians really benefit from with the timetable tailored to their individual needs. An exciting curriculum, combined with the School’s modern facilities and professional staff, creates a unique environment for aspiring performers. Entry to the Music Course is by audition where we look for musical potential and commitment. Students travel to Junior Guildhall from across the UK enabling them to live at home and continue their general education during the week travelling to London on a Saturday for their specialist musical education. There are approximately 240 students who attend the Music Course which runs from 8am to 6pm on Saturdays. All students receive an individually constructed timetable. There are compulsory activities and a number of optional classes and lessons. The length of each student’s programme will, therefore, depend on the number of optional activities chosen. The students receive 30 lessons in each subject divided between three terms over the academic year. There are also a number of extra Saturdays each term which are used for rehearsals, workshops and events. The minimum requirement of the Music Course consists of: • A 40 minute Individual lesson (this can be extended at an additional cost) • Ensemble or related workshop activity • Musical Awareness Class E S IC COUR S MU 3 Individual Lessons Extra Study Students automatically receive a As well as extensions to the first first study lesson lasting 40 minutes. study lessons students may request This may be extended to one hour to have extra study lessons in any or longer for which an extra charge of those subjects available as first is made.

Students in our Upper School (mainly in Years 12 & 13) are offered a range of optional classes including an A Level Support Class, Jazz, Conducting and an Electronic Studio class.

Students may take graded examinations or diplomas of any recognised board although we do encourage our teachers to use Trinity Guildhall.

All students, except those in Year 13, “Friendly and welcoming, the vibrant are expected to give one platform atmosphere at Junior Guildhall is performance each year which is assessed and students in Years 12 unbeatable.

  • The English Concert – Biography
    The English Concert – Biography The English Concert is one of Europe’s leading chamber orchestras specialising in historically informed performance. Created by Trevor Pinnock in 1973, the orchestra appointed Harry Bicket as its Artistic Director in 2007. Bicket is renowned for his work with singers and vocal collaborators, including in recent seasons Lucy Crowe, Elizabeth Watts, Sarah Connolly, Joyce DiDonato, Alice Coote and Iestyn Davies. The English Concert has a wide touring brief and the 2014-15 season will see them appear both across the UK and abroad. Recent highlights include European and US tours with Alice Coote, Joyce DiDonato, David Daniels and Andreas Scholl as well as the orchestra’s first tour to mainland China. Harry Bicket directed The English Concert and Choir in Bach’s Mass in B Minor at the 2012 Leipzig Bachfest and later that year at the BBC proms, a performance that was televised for BBC4. Following the success of Handel’s Radamisto in New York 2013, Carnegie Hall has commissioned one Handel opera each season from The English Concert. Theodora followed in early 2014, which toured West Coast of the USA as well as the Théâtre des Champs Elysées Paris and the Barbican London followed by a critically acclaimed tour of Alcina in October 2014. Future seasons will see performances of Handel’s Hercules and Orlando. The English Concert’s discography includes more than 100 recordings with Trevor Pinnock for Deutsche Grammophon Archiv, and a series of critically acclaimed CDs for Harmonia Mundi with violinist Andrew Manze. Recordings with Harry Bicket have been widely praised, including Lucy Crowe’s debut solo recital, Il caro Sassone.
