Parents and carers

There is no shortage of reasons why participating in a music group, band or orchestra can benefit children and young people; the opportunity to create something beautiful, have fun, make new friends, relieve stress, develop musical teamwork, gather unique experiences for CVs, learn and play a varied repertoire… above all, music is a shared experience.

Find out more below about the different music groups we offer for a range of ages and abilities.
