Julian Bream Trust Scholarships are available to exceptionally gifted classical guitarists and lutenists, who wish to study at the Royal Academy of Music.

Each Julian Bream Trust Scholarship will be awarded on the basis of musical merit and will cover the full cost of fees at the rate set by the Royal Academy of Music for Home/European Union students.

The selection of each nominee for a Julian Bream Trust Scholarship will be carried out by the Royal Academy of Music in accordance with its normal auditioning procedures and criteria. If your audition is successful, the Royal Academy of Music will pass your details to the Julian Bream Trust for consideration. There is no separate scholarship application process.

Scholarships are currently available for applicants auditioning for entry in September 2012.

Applicants may be of any nationality, but must be under 20 years old for undergraduate and under 26 years old for postgraduate programmes at the date of enrolment, in order to be eligible for a Julian Bream Trust Scholarship.
