Since 2006
DCMA has been receiving grants from the Andrew Scrivener family for the purpose
of supporting students of DCMA
The Andrew Scrivener Fund (UK) was
established in memory of the late BBC Philharmonic Orchestra violinist to
sustain the Music studies of young and talented students from all over
Tanzania. Over the years, DCMA has had four intakes of students supported by
the Andrew Scrivener Scholarship to study different instruments. This year
three DCMA students will receive support from the Fund.
The students receiving scholarship
assistance are Rahma Ameir for her study of the violin, Amina Omar for her
study of the oud and Said Bhai Said for his study of the qanun.
The Andrew Scrivener Scholarship
Fund covers the students' course fees, costs for all study materials, purchase
of the student's instrument of specialization and a weekly transport allowance
for each of the students.
This Scholarship has been greatly
sought after, with many students applying and seeking the assistance of the
award. The expressed criteria for receiving the award is the student's level of
need and talent, gender equity and promotion of assisting individuals on
learning some specific instruments.
The Dhow Countries Music Academy is
a not-for-profit music institution based in Zanzibar that provides quality
music education in various instruments as well as music related disciplines
such as traditional African Dance, Music Theory as well as providing music
courses in several schools.
