Zephyr's Postgraduate Viola Studies in London and Berlin

  • Royal College success!

      28 August 2024

    Hi everyone,

    I've hoped to be in a position to send this update for a long time but, after nearly a year of fundraising, I've officially raised enough to attend the Royal College of Music this September! My visa was approved this morning, meaning the last hurdle is crossed and we are ready for action.

    I'd like to thank every one of you so much for supporting this next step in my studies. It is a literal dream come true to be able to attend the Royal College of Music in London. I have been surrounded by so much generosity to make this happen. It is truly inspiring and humbling.

    My flight to London is now less than three weeks away, and I'm so excited to see where the year leads. Thank you all again for your support and faith in my musical endeavors!

    Best wishes,

    Zephyr

  • Creative New Zealand Scholarship

      18 June 2024

    Hi all,

    I'm very excited to announce that Creative New Zealand have awarded me the Jack McGill Music Scholarship to support my studies in London.

    While this does not cover everything, it significantly increases the likelihood that London will work out this year.

    Creative New Zealand noted in their email that they were impressed by the funds I have independently raised, and that it helped my application. That is entirely thanks to all of you!

    Thank you all so much once again, and I'll be sure to provide more (hopefully similarly buoyant) updates as the months progress!

    Best wishes,

    Zephyr
