I am specialised in preparing students for the various academic qualifications in vocal performance (recital) offered by the London College of Music Examinations (LCME) of the University of West London.
The diplomas cover a range of first-years undergraduate to master level qualifications, all fully accredited in the UK and carrying transferable academic credits for use at other (international) universities.
Exams consist of a performance element, counting for 80%, and a short demonstration of theoretical knowledge (discussion, sight reading or programme notes, depending on the diploma). The diplomas are:
- The Diploma of the London College of Music (DipLCM) in vocal performance recital is of an equivalent standard to a 1st year undergraduate module (RQF Level 4, EQF Level 5) and the performance element is examined through a 25-30 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 90 CATS (British equivalent of 45 ECTS) academic credits.
- The Associate of the London College of Music (ALCM) in vocal performance recital is of an equivalent standard to a 2nd year undergraduate module (RQF and EQF Level 5) and the performance element is examined through a 35-40 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 120 CATS (British equivalent of 60 ECTS) academic credits.
- The Licentiate of the London College of Music (LLCM) in vocal performance recital is of an equivalent standard to a final year undergraduate module (RQF and EQF Level 6) and the performance element is examined through a 45-50 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 180 CATS (British equivalent of 90 ECTS) academic credits.
- The Fellow of the London College of Music (FLCM) in vocal performance is of an equivalent standard to a Masters module (RQF and EQF Level 7) and the performance element is examined through a 50-60 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 225 CATS (British equivalent of 112.5 ECTS) academic credits.
In all cases, candidates are required to achieve 75% to attain the diploma qualification.
Exam preparation will consist of approximately 30 hours of private online tuition by me, depending on your current level. The tuition fee, including preparation and exam entry, is €20 per diploma CATS credit. Do note that entry requirements may apply, so feel free to contact me for advice on this.
In the UK, LCM's diploma examinations are regulated by Ofqual, Qualifications Wales and CCEA at Levels 4 to 7 of the Regulated Qualifications Framework. The diplomas are also included in the European Qualifications Framework (EQF).
Additionally, LCM diplomas in music are mapped against the BMus and MMus Performance / Composition degree courses at University of West London, which are validated by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA).
BMus and MMus students who hold an LCM diploma are automatically eligible to bypass the relevant module or modules on the degree course.
Other degree-awarding institutions (including those outside the UK) may, on a discretionary basis, accept LCM diplomas as Approved Prior Learning (APL) on a similar basis. This may assist in your admittance to degree studies at a conservatory or university and possibly provide dispensation for certain modules in your further studies.
Even if you are not interested in obtaining an academic qualification, feel free to approach me for private online singing and/or songwriting lessons. The hourly fee for this is published elsewhere on this page.
