Share your inspiration with us
When you visit our donation page, you’ll have the opportunity to tell us what inspired your gift. We’d love to hear your memories of the Academy or your hopes for the future of music.
If you’re happy for others to hear it, your words may be featured in our materials, on our website, or across our social channels.
I wanted to study music but was met with a lot of resistance at school, which made me more determined! I will never forget my first morning at the Academy – it felt like coming home.
I am 96 years old, and my life has been immensely enriched by music. That I have been able to enjoy that music has been due in no small part to the training provided by the Academy.
