Keyboard Programme

Whether you’re a pianist or just looking to build your keyboard skills, our expert tutors will help you develop your playing across a range of musical styles.
Alongside one-to-one lessons and music language classes, you’ll rehearse each week—either in a small ensemble with musicians from other programmes or in our piano class. The piano class is a great space to perform, collaborate on duets and trios, and explore a wide range of piano-related topics with your peers.
We also bring in some of the UK’s most renowned pianists for masterclasses, giving you the chance to learn from the best. Recent guests have included Vanessa Latarche (Royal College of Music), Martin Roscoe (Guildhall School of Music and Drama), Alexandra Dariescu (Young Concert Artist Trust), and jazz pianist Elliot Galvin, among many others.
Piano skills are a huge asset for any musician, and many students take up keyboard as a second study—often achieving top grades and performing in our lunchtime concerts.
For those with an interest in jazz piano, we have a close link with our Popular and Contemporary Programme which provides further opportunity.
