A level and GCSE Composition

Conservatoir applications

I received full marks for my A level composition aswell as an A* and while I can't write your composition for you, I would be more than happy to support your composition abilities and ensure that your final piece is the best it can be. Here are somethings we could focus on in the lesson: 

• Developing coursework from early ideas through to final pieces

• Making your ideas clearer and more focused

• Improving harmony, melody, and structure

• Giving detailed but practical feedback on your work

• Preparing your final submissions

 I am currently studying composition at the Royal Academy and I fully understand how daunting the composition application process can be, especially with many schools lacking the resources to fully support a conservatoire application. I am here to ease that process to make sure you stand out amongst the crowd in your composition portfolio and your interview. Here are some topics we could cover in lessons:

• Feedback on portfolio work

• Application on UCAS conservatoire

• Helping you choose and improve pieces

• Developing a stronger musical identity

• Preparing for interviews and discussions
