Accompaniment

  • An accompanist is compulsory for all graded string, woodwind, brass & voice examinations. Under no circumstance will the examiner accept a backing track unless its ROCKSCHOOL.
  •  
  • Keenan School of Music charge for accompanying. Prices vary depending on the level of the grade.
  •  
  • Accompanying charge includes several ‘run-throughs’ and on the day accompanying (if using Keenan School of music accompanists).
  •  
  • This is a professional full time job for musicians, the cost which can be astronomical. We however will not charge as high as this if pupils attend the school
  •  
  • Pupils must arrange their time around the accompanist. The accompanist will not rearrange a run-through to suit the Pupil e.g. to fit around their sports / visiting friends etc.
  •  
  • If you do not show for your run-through you will still be charged.
  •  
  • All payment for accompanying must be settled in advance of run-throughs and exam.
  •  
  • If you wish to use your own Accompanist please pass on their name so they can be checked as an official accompanist.Visiting Accompanists may not use the Keenan School of Music’s facilities or Pianos for a run through.
