LSO Conservatoire Scholarships

A programme for exceptional musicians facing financial barriers, to support their postgraduate study at the world’s leading conservatoires.

The LSO Conservatoire Scholarships programme is a ground-breaking initiative that aims to ensure that musicians from all backgrounds have access to conservatoire training and reduce barriers to entering the profession.

Such barriers include high tuition and maintenance costs. These Scholarships of up to £16,000 per academic year will allow recipients to focus fully on their studies during a critical time in their education, whilst benefiting from additional support and mentoring from the LSO’s own renowned musicians.

The programme is open to postgraduate instrumentalists of any age or nationality, who meet the following eligibility criteria:

• Are facing financial barriers, with an overall family income of less than £58,500 per annum.
• Have been awarded a scholarship place for a postgraduate course at one of the leading 10 conservatoires in the world, focused on classical study of an orchestral instrument.
• Have previously studied at undergraduate level at a UK conservatoire or university.
