We are delighted to be able to offer Purcell Taster Days throughout the academic year. These events are run by a department or instrument, and offer a fantastic opportunity for young musicians to accelerate their playing with tuition from our expert instrumental teachers. Purcell Taster Days are also a great way to meet our staff and experience what studying at The Purcell School is like.
