Encore Music Academy: A Royal Conservatory of Music Founding School and Official Assessment Center

“Promoting excellence in the fields of music education, performance, and the recording arts.”

Royal Conservatory of Music Assessment Results Are In!

Another round of Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) assessments has come and gone!

Three times per year, students of all ages and musical abilities come to Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios to perform their exams in front of adjudicators who travel from across Canada and the United States to administer assessments.

In addition to academic assessments in music theory, harmony, analysis, and history, students perform practical assessments on their instrument of choice. Instruments represented include piano, voice, classical guitar, flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, drums, violin, and viola. This August, students from throughout the Northeast traveled to Encore to take their assessments.

The Royal Conservatory of Music Certificate Program provides a recognized national standard of achievement in music study, from beginner through advanced levels. The program inspires excellence through individual student assessments while supporting teachers with high-quality, innovative resources. RCM allows students to measure and celebrate their accomplishments while tracking their progress throughout their musical journey.

All students and teachers across the United States are invited to participate, and Encore Music Academy is proud to offer these opportunities both at our school and through outreach to the surrounding communities.
