Guildhall is an institution that knows it has to be connected to the outside world - that's the key thing. It's not a bubble. It has roots in the city and in the world.

One minute you could be playing in the Guildhall Studio Orchestra with jazz musicians, the next you could be playing in the opera pit, then the next minute you'll be with actors doing the musical and then playing a symphony in the orchestra.

I knew about the fantastic tutoring and resources, but the friendly and stimulating environment clinched it for me.

I had the opportunity to play percussion with the Guildhall Studio Orchestra which gave me the chance to learn from, and play alongside, amazing senior players, as well as to perform with the incredible Liane Carroll.

At Guildhall, they don't hold your hand, but they're going to push you to become the actor that you want to be.

Daniel Adeosun
BA Acting

It's the scale of productions that really makes Guildhall stand out. It gets to the point where you think, wow, this is massive. In other places, you just wouldn't have that opportunity to learn on the job.

Recording Facilities & Guildhall Stream

All school performances are professionally video recorded for student viewing via Guildhall Stream – a service run by the School’s Recording & AV Department. Students have access to a professional recording studio, the use of portable recording equipment and event recording services free of charge.

The Recording & AV department is staffed by five full time engineers with vast industry experience. Our engineers’ credits include Prince, Robert Glasper, the London Symphony Orchestra and countless others. Members of the Recording & AV team have twice been nominated for Grammy awards. Students have the opportunity to make broadcast quality recordings, for audition, competition or personal development purposes in any of the school’s performance venues as well as the Recording & TV Studio.

Key masterclasses, lectures and workshops are recorded and added to Guildhall Stream for Staff & Student review. All videos are keyword searchable, meaning students can search for their name and develop an online repository of their performances throughout their time at the school.
