musical instruments.
Public benefits
The direct benefits of the Charities purposes are to improve the musical skills of the young and
promising musicians defined as those showing from an early age the possibility of achieving
excellence in advanci ng their musical talents. The Charity will provide funds to finance extra tuition,
specialist training and the provision of musical instruments for those who might not be able to afford
such costs themselves. Such improved skills will be demonstrated through the educational
attainment of each musician through their retrospective disciplines and proved and evidenced by
such improved skills.
Any private benefits that might arise, for example the benefit orchestras might gain from having the
improved musician in their number would be incidental to the carrying out of the purposes of the
charity, but this would be offset by the wider and indirect benefit to the community at large who
would be able to share in the musicians improved skills through public performance.
