Chetham’s School of Music will open its doors again for a spectacular summer school in 2025

Suitable for singers, pianists and players of orchestral instruments at Grades 4 and above, aged 11-17 (singers aged 14-17).

Enjoy world-class facilities, learn from some of the best music tutors in the world and play with other young musicians who may become friends for life!

Sign up early to reserve your place on this week-long residential music course, within the spectacular musical surroundings of Chetham’s School of Music and the Stoller Hall, in the heart of Manchester.

Each day will be fun and action packed – with instrument workshops and personalised guidance. Experience singing, musicianship and ensemble music playing, with performance opportunities on a professional concert hall stage.

After the music stops each evening, stay in our purpose built boarding facilities, with plenty of fun activities, games and shared experiences with Chetham’s caring team of staff. Non-residential places are also available.

Chetham’s is passionate about providing a world-class musical education regardless of financial background. Payments can be made upfront in full, or by installments. If you need financial assistance to be able to participate, please let us know and we will see if we can support you.

You can also find more information about recognised organisations who offer Grants and Bursaries here.
