About St Mary’s Music School Directors’ Recital Prize Final 2025

One of the highlights of the St Mary’s Music School year is the Directors’ Recital Prize Final, now in its 25th year. Taking place in the stunning setting of St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral, this prestigious competition sees four senior pupils (S5 and above) perform a solo recital in front of a public audience and expert adjudicators.

Each finalist has earned their place through exceptional performance and artistic development, and the evening offers a rich and inspiring programme of solo repertoire. The prize, awarded by the School’s Directors, recognises both musical excellence and the personal growth of the performers.
