Our first performance opportunity of the 2017/2018 academic year is ‘Hands on Harpsichord‘, an event for pianists to try out the harpsichord in a workshop and then participate in an informal recital. You may already be learning a suitable piece as part of your graded exam preparation. Do check with me if you are not sure. Music written in the 17th & 18th centuries is the most suitable for the harpsichord. If you do not have a suitable piece, there is a selection of Easy Baroque pieces below graded in order of difficulty. This event is supported by Southwark Council which enables us to keep the entry costs low for performers and completely free for audience members.
Ticket Booking:
Junior Class: Grades 1 to 5 (8 spaces available)
Senior Class: Grade 6+ (6 spaces available)
