Support creativity, excellence and cultural enrichment through UQ’s School of Music.
Music is a powerful force that unites, heals and uplifts. It connects us to our emotions, histories and each other. Through your generosity, the School of Music can continue to inspire and encourage our student leaders in performance, composition, education and research.
Your support directly impacts our ability to offer world-class education and training, preparing students for successful music careers. Funding to the School of Music can help provide students in need quality instruments and robust academic and performance opportunities.
In an environment where students are acutely aware of future financial uncertainty around jobs, housing and debt, any form of financial support is important in encouraging them to pursue their love of music.
Every gift is meaningful.
Gifts can support students like Saxon, a Bachelor of Music (Honours) student who was awarded a School of Music scholarship.
“This scholarship has been an absolute blessing,” Saxon said.
“It has allowed me to thrive and grow in ways which would have not been possible without it. I cannot begin to describe how thankful I am for the opportunities you have provided me.
“This award has been particularly helpful in covering most of my rent for the year, allowing me to live on campus and ‘close to the action’.
“With the leftover money, I was able to purchase essential music supplies, such as an iPad (which has been life changing regarding sheet music etc.) as well as paper copies of sheet music.”
Support the School of Music this UQ Giving Day, so students like Saxon can continue to share their passion and musical knowledge with the broader community.
