Piano accompanist

The Royal College of Music Junior Department (RCMJD) is a specialist term-time only Saturday school offering advanced training to musicians between the ages of 6 and 18. Students combine studying at RCMJD with their general education at their chosen week-day school. Students come together at the RCM London each Saturday for a tailor-made programme of individual instrument/voice/composition lessons, chamber music, orchestral and choral training, and general musicianship. Our staff are professional performers/composers as well as teachers and offer the highest standards of tuition and coaching. Most RCMJD students continue their musical studies at the RCM or other major conservatoires/universities. 

The RCMJD is seeking to engage an accomplished piano accompanist. The post holder will be responsible for accompanying students in our weekly Performance Platform classes from 2.30 - 5.30 p.m.

We expect to be able to offer a minimum of 3 hours teaching per week, for approximately 30 weeks per year. Up to 4 hours of additional chamber coaching per week may be available, depending on scheduling and timetable considerations for next academic year. The successful applicant will need to make a regular commitment to the RCMJD on Saturday afternoons during term-time.
