Hello! I want to study harp at a conservatoire in the UK. Could anyone tell me the differences in the teaching programme m, performance opportunities and the styles of music taught of the UK conservatoires for harp? I enjoy classical and modern repertoire but I have a keen interest in jazz harp as well.
I can’t answer any of your questions, but you may like to research first what would be the possible consequences for you as a EU-citizen if the UK crashes out of the EU at 31 October. To start with, it may have an effect on your right to stay in the UK.
Are you aware that there may be shortages of food and medicine, as well as steep rises in prices. Also, there is a fear of riots.
The risk of a no deal Brexit has never been greater than now.
If you have a dream of studying in the UK and their schools meet your requirements, then I hope that you pursue it, regardless of the political vicissitudes of their government. Life should always go on. (I personally would not let any negativity stop me.) I hope that some of our UK Harp Column members will answer your questions.
Are you on facebook? The UK Harp Association forum is a good place to contact UK harpists (and worth joining the UKHA if you haven’t). But also when phasing your question I think few harpists will know about all of the programmes to discuss the differences, while many know a lot about one or two specific colleges.
Hi Aurélie, I’m really sorry to say, but even though you’ve live in the UK since you were six months old, you still will be effected in other ways than UK citizens.
