Pipe Organ

About LCME Pipe Organ Exams​

There are five LCME Pipe Organ grades (2, 4, 5, 6 and 8), four performance diplomas, and three teaching diplomas.

The standard graded exams consist of a performance of three pieces, technical work, a discussion, sight reading and aural tests.

We also provide alternatives to our standard examination format designed to offer something different to our diverse range of candidates:

  • Recital – an exam entirely or predominantly performance-based
  • Concert – an entirely performance-based diploma exam
