About Junior Guildhall
Students come together to experience and learn about music and drama under the guidance of staff drawn from London’s orchestras and freelance professionals, and senior professors of Guildhall School.
Junior Guildhall students often go on to study their chosen discipline full-time at undergraduate level, eventually making careers in the profession, though others can, and do, move into totally different fields.

We offer advanced training in music and drama for children and young people aged 18 and under.

Junior Guildhall is a big institution but not a large, faceless one. Instead, they are friendly and approachable. They offer me much needed flexibility for my career development, for which I am extremely grateful.

My time at Junior Guildhall made a huge impact on my life. For the first time, I found my tribe. I have nothing but fond memories of the friends I made and the teachers who guided me. They helped me find my confidence and establish where I could belong. What an experience to immerse myself in. It was the first time I felt music could be a career for me.
