Concerts and Music Festivals
I periodically organise informal concerts for my students, including separate concerts for adult learners, to give them the opportunity to work on their performance skills in a friendly and supportive environment.
My students are encouraged to take part in concerts at school, both for solo performances and as part of an ensemble, and to take part in other local opportunities.
I hope that I will be able to run concerts again in 2022.
Developing orchestra skills
Developing your orchestral and chamber music skills is a really fulfilling thing to do as a musician. There are lots of options for students of varying standards and ages.
