| Studio Curriculum |
| Carswell Music Studios Instructors teach Royal Conservatory of Music levels in all subjects equally weighted with an assortment of contemporary repertoire. Ear training, sight-reading, music theory and improvisational techniques are also included in the curriculum. We stress creativity and looking at music structurally. |
| Royal Conservatory Examinations |
| Examinations need not be taken at every level. Students should accept at least two exams prior to the grade 8 level. The grade 8 exam is mandatory if the student wishes to continue to the grade 9 level. Students can take an exam at any level at request of the parent. Examination fees vary from $35 to $150. Registration dates for exams are November 1st and March 1st Applicants received after the deadline are not considered. Money is not refunded for exams not taken. |
| Royal Conservatory Examinations Certificates |
| In order to earn a certificate for certain grades, you will need to meet theory requirements. We offer excellent group classes in all the required subjects (history, rudiments and harmony). Please consult your teacher to find out which courses you will need. Certificates can be used towards high school credits (Gr. 9 music and OAC). |
| Fees |
| Four post-dated cheques, dated the first of each month, and made payable to the teacher, are due at the first lesson in September. Six post-dated cheques will be required at the first lesson in January. The teacher will specify the amount of each cheque in a statement. The student is committed to Carswell Music Studios for one month at a tine. If the student wished to discontinue music lessons, all remaining cheques will be returned or destroyed. |
| Registration Fee |
| In addition to this there is an annual registration fee of $45.00 per student per studio year. For two or more students, the fee is $78. This fee pays for all the services, which the studio provides for the year. This includes recitals, workshops, newsletters, regular consultation with parents, the library, music madness, and a host of others. |

We cannot provide excellence to your child if lessons are regularly missed. Consideration needs to be given to the teacher who books you this set time for the whole year. |
