Students have the opportunity to perform in recitals twice per year, play in front of their peers in masterclasses, the Concerto Showcase, and prepare for examinations and festivals.

We invite guest teachers to talk about their experience with music, pedagogy and public performance.

Performance Opportunities

  • Recitals

    Taking place in December and June, they are a great way to show family and friends the end result of each semester. This is a great opportunity to dress formal and perform in a professional setting.

    Our recitals have been hosted at various locations throughout the city. We are always looking to offer our students the best locations, stages and pianos for performing.

  • Masterclass

    A masterclass is a great chance for students to prepare for RCM exams, university auditions, recitals or any kind of performances. Each student will play one or two pieces and we will discuss their performance, information regarding the style of the pieces, composers and some ear training. The students will get to know each other better as friends and musicians.

    Every masterclass is a great opportunity for students to play for each other in a friendly environment before performing on stage for other events such as exams, recitals, festivals or auditions.

  • Concerto Showcase

    Every year the teachers select a few students that show potential and interest in performing in a unique setting. The selected students will commit to learning a full Concerto and performing it as an ensemble with Adelheid as the second piano. Since the piano is a solo instrument, this is a great opportunity in experiencing playing with others.

  • Festivals

    For students with a competitive spirit and eager to perform even more, Festivals are fantastic in building confidence and perseverance.

  • Mock Exams

    The Mock Exams will take place a month before the scheduled RCM examinations, in person or online.

    The student will be examined and marked by the teachers in the same style that they will be tested in the actual exams. They will be handed a comments sheet after the performance.

  • Examinations

    Exams are a great way to keep students on track and set goals. RCM examinations are available in-person and online and each student will sign up to perform when the teachers confirms their readiness.
