About LCME Irish Traditional Music Exams
There are eight LCME Irish Traditional grades, one introductory level, four performance diplomas and three teaching diplomas.
The standard graded exams consist of a performance of three pieces, repertoire and supplementary tests.
We also provide alternatives to our standard examination format designed to offer something different to our diverse range of candidates:
- Leisure Play – a performance of four pieces with an optional own-choice piece
Exams can be taken in any one of the following instruments: Banjo, Bodhrán, Button Accordion, Concertina, Electronic Keyboard, Fiddle, Flute, Guitar, Harp, Mandolin, Melodeon, Piano, Piano Accordion, Tin Whistle and Uilleann Pipes. Other instruments will be considered; please get in touch with the LCME office.
