Students can be prepared for ABRSM and RIAM music exams, and for ABRSM music theory exams. Classes for Leaving Cert music theory are also available, and students can be prepared for third-level entrance exams and auditions.

Fees

Fees are €200 per term for ten 30-minute lessons. Fees are payable at the start of each term, by cheque or bank transfer. For 45-minute lessons, fees are €300 per term. 60-minute lessons can be arranged for advanced students.

A Family Discount is available - this means that there is a 10% discount on fees for the second or third child enrolled from the same family. We also offer a 10% discount on the second set of fees for a student who enrols for two sets of lessons (e.g. piano and singing).

Please note that fees for music exams, music competitions, sheet music and accessories are in addition to the fees due for each term.
