Geoffrey Parsons Australian Scholarship

The Geoffrey Parsons Australian Scholarship was established in 1995 by various donors in memory of the late Geoffrey Parsons. This scholarship supports students undertaking further studies as a piano accompanist or opera répétiteur at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, University of Sydney. The scholarship is awarded on the basis of academic merit and/or portfolio or performance. For postgraduate research applicants, the scholarship may also be awarded on the basis of research achievements and potential. The scholarship will be awarded in alternate years to an applicant studying either piano accompanist or opera répétiteur. No application is necessary as eligible students will be considered for this scholarship as part of their admission application to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. The scholarship value and duration will be determined by the Dean of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and will be stipulated in the scholarship offer letter to the successful recipient(s).
