Geschichte

Bearbeiten

Die „School of English Church Music“ (SECM) wurde 1927 von Sydney Nicholson gegründet und 1929 in Buller’s Wood in Chislehurst eröffnet. In 1945, it became the Royal School of Church Music (RSCM), and moved to Canterbury Cathedral. In 1954, it moved to Addington Palace and then in 1996 to Cleveland Lodge, Dorking. Since 2006, it has been based at Sarum College in Salisbury.[3]

The Millennium Youth Choir is the charity's national youth choir which has sung for BBC Radio 3 Choral Evensong and the Proms.[6][7] The RSCM Voices and RSCM Cathedral Singers are other choirs run by the RSCM.

Awards and medals

Bearbeiten
 
Head Chorister Medal
 
St Nicolas Award

The RSCM provides a series of grades and awards to signify varying levels of musical achievement.

There are four basic merit awards – the light blue ribbon, the dark blue ribbon, the red ribbon and the yellow ribbon. These awards share the same medal and are widely used within individual choirs to encourage progression and development, being managed and awarded at a parish/choir level.

Beyond these are three awards achieved by examination:

* The Bronze award * The Silver award * The Gold award

There are no prerequisites for taking the awards exams and full details of the current syllabus can by found on the RSCM website. In broad terms, a Bronze award is equivalent to ABRSM grade 4 in terms of difficulty, though its requirements are broader. Similarly Silver roughly equates to grade 6 and Gold to grade 8.

The former medals are as follows:

For choristers up to the age of 16 For choristers up to the age of 21
  • The Dean's/Provost's award
  • The Bishop's Award
  • The Junior St Nicolas / St Cecilia Awards
  • The Senior St Nicolas / St Cecilia Awards
