Guildhall School Artists regularly perform recitals in prestigious venues across London, such as the Barbican Centre, Kings Place, Wigmore Hall and the Southbank Centre.

In 2009 the Guildhall School and Wigmore Hall started a annual collaboration, the Guildhall Wigmore Prize, which would enable an outstanding Guildhall student to make a solo Wigmore Hall recital debut.

Guildhall School’s premier music prize was founded and endowed by Sir H. Dixon Kimber in 1915 and since the 1950s it has been open to singers and instrumentalists in alternate years.

All of our work at Guildhall is shaped by collaboration. We collaborate internally across disciplines and departments, and with many external organisations.

Whatever your instrument or specialism, Guildhall School provides a host of opportunities for you to perform, record and collaborate (and if you’re a composer, to hear your own works performed).
