Learning an instrument

The music team of specialist musicians can provide:

instrumental music lessons for every orchestral and band instrument, guitar and keyboard, tabla, steel pans and voice;
projects to support the wider opportunities pledge at KS2 that every child should have the chance to learn a musical instrument or sing with a vocal specialist;
performance opportunities in our central and area orchestras, bands, ensembles and choirs;
conductors for school bands, orchestras, choirs and music making groups;
demonstration/taster sessions in schools by individual or groups of musicians;
workshops to give young musicians in your area a chance to play or sing together.
the loan of orchestral string instruments, oboes, bassoons, French horns, trombones, euphoniums and tubas.

The Department for Children Schools and Families has published guidance about government aspirations for music and instrumental / vocal learning in schools.
