Opera and Musical Theatre awards for 2024/5 open for applications
Music students can apply now for financial support toward study and living costs in the next academic year
The Sybil Tutton Opera Awards and Ian Fleming Musical Theatre Awards are now open for applications, offering financial support to students facing financial barriers to their studies.
Students studying opera or musical theatre at postgraduate level in the academic year 2024/25 can apply to receive between £1,000 and £5,000 towards course fees and associated living costs and expenses.
The support meant that I could continue to pursue a life and career in music. Without it I wouldn’t have been able to attend the Guildhall Opera Course or the National Opera Studio.
The Sybil Tutton Opera Awards are open to students who are studying opera at Postgraduate level at one of the following:
- Guildhall School of Music and Drama
- National Opera Studio

Applications close at 9am on Friday 17 May.
Without charities like Help Musicians, people who are just as talented as those who can afford to go to university wouldn’t be able to get in the room.
