A masterclass aimed at musical students considering an Oxbridge Choral or Organ award, is being held at Bradford Cathedral on 20 February 2024 at 6.30pm.
Louisa Denby from Cambridge University will be visiting the Cathedral for a recital in February and as part of her stay in Yorkshire, Louisa will be offering a masterclass and information session on the Choral and Organ Scholarship awards schemes at Oxford and Cambridge Universities.
This promises to be a fascinating and insightful evening in which they hope to demystify this often confusing process! Louisa is the Director of Studies in Music at Downing College, Cambridge and also the Co-Ordinator of the Choral Awards Scheme across Cambridge University. She has been an Organ Scholar and Assisting Organist at a number of colleges herself, and is a fount of knowledge on all such matters!
Louisa will lead everyone through the application, audition and awards process, as well as offering some sample tests for both Choral and Organ Award applicants. She will also be extremely happy to talk to anyone considering studying music about the course at Cambridge, as well as students considering any course about University collegiate life at Cambridge and Oxford.
The event is open to all in school years 10-13 or older who have yet to apply to university. Please sign up via this link here.
