Next workshop: ONLINE SUMMER TERM, 22 JUNE 2025

Join Harriet Adie for an online exam boosting workshop focussing on speedy scales, savvy sight reading, accurate aural, polished performances and more!

Each session is designed to give students a boost in that all important period just before exams take place and covers both the 2019 and 2025 ABRSM syllabi as well as Trinity Guildhall. We will focus on:

  • secure knowledge of key signatures and the pedals/levers required

  • the different scale and arpeggio requirements and how to start them in a relaxed and confident manner

  • what to look out for when sight reading (which will also include some ensemble-based sight reading catering to individual playing levels)

  • how to tune into the inner ear and pulse for accurate aural skills

  • a chance to perform exam pieces to the rest of the group

  • how to best prepare on the day of the exam

  • practise tips and tricks for the remaining weeks until the exam

SESSION 1, 10AM - 12.30PM is for students working on grades 1 - 4, with both lever and pedal harp players included.

SESSION 2, 2 PM - 4.30PM is for students working on grades 5 - 8, with both lever and pedal harp players included.
