Approaching Music Performance Diplomas – Written Programme for ATCL and LTCL

Trinity’s Performance Diplomas Syllabus requires a written programme to be presented at ATCL and LTCL level.

The requirements (as stated in the 2019 Performance Diplomas Syllabus) are that the programme includes the following:

• Names of the candidate and the accompanist (if applicable)
• Date (and optionally, place and time) of the recital
• Composers, full titles including movement titles and opus numbers (where available) of all the works to be played, in order of performance
• An accurate timing for each piece, and for the entire programme
• For singing diplomas only: translations of the song texts

For face to face exams, a printed programme is required. For digital exams, the formatted programme should be uploaded to MyTrinity.

Please note that detailed notes on the pieces are not required at ATCL and LTCL. For FTCL, please refer to pages 20-21 of the syllabus and our guide to writing programme notes.
