Playing additional instruments is an advantage, but not a determining factor. A minimum level of Grade 2 of musical development must have been achieved on their main instruments and participation in musical activities, other than being a soloist, will benefit them. Pupils applying for a Music Scholarship may be contacted by the Music Department for an audition.
