The Advanced Course is designed to provide a wide breadth of study for cellists of grade 6 to post grade 8 standard. This exciting course aims to reinforce and build upon an understanding of all the essential elements of cello technique in a lively and engaging atmosphere. Our innovative approach includes video analysis sessions which add to the tutor's feedback by allowing students the rare opportunity of actually seeing the strengths and weaknesses of their cello technique.

Students should come with a prepared piece of their own choice.

• Masterclasses (by audition)
