Rose Bruford musicality workshop advice

Hi can anyone advise what the musicality workshop at Rose Bruford entails as part of recall please? Dilemma is sight reading best on classical guitar, but musicality best on piano by a long road. Thoughts? TIA

While sight reading may be a component, the workshop may also focus on your ability to interpret and convey musical ideas effectively.

Thank you, that is food for thought.

Hey!! It was good thanks! The musicality workshop is so chill - no sight treading! There’s a teensy but of improv so I’d choose the instrument you’re most comfortable on! I’m more of a pianist but I brought my mandolin anyway and just ended up playing that. We were given the option to swap around as there were too many pianists for keyboards but I stuck with mandolin! Good luck for yours!!
