December 30th, 2008 – A few days ago, I posted about learning and how I felt that a good mentor would go a long way in developing musicianship skills. Well, the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance in the UK, is holding a worldwide scholarship audition. For each of its four main disciplines (guitar, bass, drums, and vocals), they offer one full scholarship, as well as one partial, to the Higher Diploma program. The Higher Diploma is a one year program that fast tracks your performance skills. You get lessons in many styles, and perform every week live with other instrumentalists.
It sounds like a pretty cool program and it can be used as a primer into their 3-year BMus program which is affiliated with the University of East London. Sound like something you’re interested in? Send a 3 minute un-edited video of yourself playing to impress before March 9th, 2009. As I stated earlier, the audition is open to people outside the UK, but you’ll have to arrange your own living arrangements. More information is listed here for the guitar side. Visit the site for other scholarship programs.
Update 3/1/2008 – The audition deadlines have been extended to March 27th. Check the website for more details.
