Sherborne Summer School of Music

A limited number of bursaries are available for gifted British musicians and provide up to 55% of full costs (tuition, accommodation and food) for participating students staying in dormitory accommodation. The number of awards is limited so we recommend that applicants also apply to other grant giving bodies in order not to be disappointed.

The Summer School wishes to make grateful acknowledgement to the following who have kindly donated student bursaries.

British Association of Symphonic Wind Bands and Ensembles Education Trust

The Broadwood Trust

Sherborne Summer School of Music Stewards 2016

The Cadbury Trust
