Piano summer school hosted by Chetham School of Music (boarding school), the largest music school for children in the UK. The biggest feature that other courses do not have is that it is a course open to everyone, corresponding to all levels and generations. This course will not only offer classes for children, but also for young pianists aiming for competitions, and adult amateurs such as piano teachers. It is a "participant-oriented" summer school where lessons are tailored to each skill and need while having fun, rather than a serious elitist mindset. In addition to general piano classes, there are courses such as jazz piano, piano improvisation, organ, harpsichord, composition, music theory, and sight-reading, and participants can choose a course according to their level and interests. Some participants take not only one sensei but two or three classes. Each class is guaranteed three hours of private lessons, and you can also audit other classes. You can also participate in workshops by the instructor. The course is characterized by many public one-on-one lessons, and the instructor provides thorough support to each individual participant, such as relieving anxiety about performance and giving advice on practice methods and repertoire. There are also over 1 practice rooms, so you can immerse yourself in practice to your heart's content. Outside of practice, you can use the swimming pool and tennis courts, which are open every day, and activities such as table tennis and soccer are also held. There are also concerts by Sensei. As it is a boarding music school with 2-hour security, minors can participate with peace of mind. Why not enjoy learning piano in the UK in a free, relaxed and friendly atmosphere?
* Ideal for studying abroad for parents and children.
*Minors must be accompanied by an attendant.
