About the scholarship
The award is designed to support talented undergraduate or postgraduate students of the organ. If the selection panel in their discretion consider no person in a particular year to be a suitable recipient of the benefit under the principal purpose, funds may be provided for a visiting fellow in organ whose work enhances the preservation of performance, training and/or development of organ music at the New Zealand School of Music. This scholarship was established in 2009, through the Victoria University of Wellington Foundation, from a bequest from the estate of Mr. Ian Pollard to support talented students of the organ enrolled at the New Zealand School of Music.
