Welcome to the Raphael Sommer Music Scholarship Trust!

We have a newly designed website to commemorate the 10 years that have passed since Raphael Sommer left us so abruptly in November 2001.

We are organising a tribute concert ‘Remembering Raphael Sommer - Ten Years On’ at the South Bank on 17 October 2011 at Purcell Room. Further info and booking avaiable HERE.
 

You can find information about auditions we hold yearly in London for young talented cellists HERE. Applications open early next year.

Josh Salter who studied at Chethams Music School was awarded the scholarship for the academic year 2011 - 12.

For other news about the Trust, please navigate the various sections.

The Raphael Sommer Music Scholarship Trust also organises regular events in the UK and France. Details of these can be found in the NEWS feature on the right of your screen.
