Dd is going to need piano accompanist. Will there be an opportunity to practise with the pianist before the audition?

Are you sure? You get a rehearsal room but I don't think that the accompanist will be with you. I thought it was one of the examiners who is the head of music at the boys school that does it. If I am right and this is the case he is a very experienced accompanist and a lovely man so will put the candidate at ease. Email the admissions secretary and check so you know for certain.

Might be useful for next year music applicants: We were given a rehearsal room, but no chance to practice with the accompanist.

I thought all auditions would have been done last week. Good luck to your DC.
