THE ORGAN SCHOLAR EXPERIENCE (TOSE) – 18 – 23 July 2017, Oxford

RCO’s annual, ever popular, flagship summer school for ambitious young organists returns from Tuesday 18 to Sunday 23 July in Oxford. 

TOSE is designed as a residential course for those aged 14 – 19 considering an organ scholarship, or those who simply wish to gain experience in repertoire playing and technique, accompanying and conducting choirs, and keyboard skills.

There are expert teachers with experience in both churches and concert halls who will be providing tuition.

You will also get the opportunity to

perform in student concerts
sing and direct choral services of compline and evensong in Oxford University college chapels
attend tutor recitals

And, like all residential courses, there is a lively social programme to enjoy! We hope you make lasting friendships and forge vital connections.

Accommodation is provided in individual rooms at The Queen’s College.

Fees:

RCO Members: £650
Non-members: £680

Early-bird discount of £30 on bookings until 28 February.
Bursaries are available to assist with TOSE fees (see here).

Further information and booking can be found here.
