The National Music Certificate Program (NMCP) in collaboration with the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) has certainly set the standard for excellence in music education. As Founding Teacher and supporter of the NMCP, I especially appreciate the vigorous and logical program of technical requirements set forth for participants of this examination syndicate.
Piano teachers and instructors subscribing to the NMCP/RCM examinations would do well to add the Piano Syllabus 2008 Edition to their resources. The Royal Conservatory of Music Official Examination Syllabus for the piano is applicable to participants of both the RCM examinations and the National Music Certificate Program. It is published by Frederick Harris Music Company.
Because there is no online version of this Piano Syllabus, I am in the process of gathering all the technical requirements for all grades of the NMCP/RCM piano examinations and compiling them for easy online access and reference. I hope this will be a helpful resource for teachers and students preparing for the NMCP and RCM piano examinations.
