Transformational Patrons enjoy a closer relationship with RIAM with additional access aligned to your specific interests. You also have the unique benefit of watching the personal and musical growth of the students that your gift directly supports.
There are four levels at which you can support RIAM students as a Transformational Patron:
- Adagio Patron €2,500 p.a.
- Provides 1 years free tuition and travel costs for one Junior RIAM Student
- Andante Patron* €5,000 p.a.
- Provides tuition and accommodation support for one 1848 Scholar at Bachelor level. In return the student gives back to the institution through administrative assistance, junior teaching or joining RIAM’s outreach projects.
- Allegro Patron** €10,000 p.a
- Provides 85% tuition for one of our Masters or Doctorate Students. In return the student gives back to the institution through administrative assistance, junior and undergraduate teaching, joining RIAM’s outreach projects, or assisting in musical research.
- Allegretto Patron** €25,000 p.a
- Provides one year’s free tuition, accommodation and living support for one of our Masters or Doctorate Students or full tuition waiver for the duration of one Masters programme. In return the student gives back to the institution through administrative assistance, junior and undergraduate teaching, joining RIAM’s outreach projects and assisting in musical research.
Individual Named Bursaries and Competitions
*At the Andante level of support there are opportunities to support individually named bursaries and competitions in RIAM. Named Bursaries can be awarded to students who, in return, provide administrative or teaching assistance to RIAM. Named competitions provide valuable opportunities for students to hone their performance skills in a competitive environment with their peers.
Project and Programme Support
**At the Allegretto and Allegro levels of support there are also opportunities to annually support specific projects and programmes around access and inclusion and talent development. These programmes, encourage participation, help our students raise their music and creative capabilities, and provide access to a professional network of international peers and visiting artists. Partnering with us on any one of these artistic projects, over the longer term, helps RIAM support the students’ development of their skills, driving up standards and securing the future of Irish musical talent.
