Danielle Perrettharpist

Examining

Danielle has been an examiner for Trinity Guildhall, (formerly Trinity College, London) for many years, examining many thousands of candidates, and has trained many new examiners. As an examiner, she has travelled to various parts of the world, examining students on all the orchestral instruments, plus piano, organ and other instruments such as drum kit and electronic keyboard.

Danielle has also devised the harp syllabuses, introducing an unprecedented syllabus for non-pedal harp from Initial Grade to Performer's Certificate. As a result of this Danielle has written a book, Technical Development for Harpists, which is published by Faber.

Danielle believes that the time she has spent assessing so many candidates has helped hone her skills, not only as an examiner, but also as a teacher and adjudicator.
