North East of Scotland Music School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The North East of Scotland Music School is an independent charitable foundation established in Aberdeen in 1975 by the late Dorothy Hately MBE. Its aim is to provide advanced tuition not normally available within the statutory sector by bringing in specialist teachers from outside Aberdeen on a regular basis. It is financed through a mixture of local authority grant aid ( Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire Councils), corporate sponsorship, donations from trusts, etc. and volunteer fund-raising. Entry to the school is by audition on the basis of musical ability regardless of age but limited to persons living in Scotland. Students pay their own (subsidised) fees. Competitive scholarships are awarded annually on a balance of musical potential and financial need.
