Overview of the Choral Scholarships at Leicester Cathedral scholarship
Who can apply for the Choral Scholarships at Leicester Cathedral?
Leicester Cathedral offers three Choral Scholarships of £1,000 each year to our Citizens of Change (undergraduates or postgraduates).
Priority is given to students who sing alto (male or female), tenor or bass, but in the absence of suitable candidates in these voice parts, it may be possible to award a scholarship to a soprano.
You should have experience of singing in choirs. Experience of singing in a church or cathedral choir is beneficial but not as important as strong sight-reading ability.
You should apply before starting at University, although unfilled scholarships may be allocated after the start of the academic year.
Scholarships are for one year in the first instance and are usually extended for a further two, given a satisfactory report by the Director of Music to the Dean and Chapter and a willingness on the student's part to continue.
