The Countess of Munster Musical Trust was established in 1958 by Lady Munster to help young musicians achieve their full potential towards securing careers as performers. The Countess of Munster, Hilary Wilson, was herself a talented pianist and devoted her life to music.
Since 1958 the Trust has worked to support young musicians of professional potential to achieve their aims by funding their educational fees and living expenses and also by subsidising concerts to ease the transition from student to professional life. Well-respected in the classical music world, the Trust continues to make a real and significant contribution to the advancement of talented young musicians.
