It’s time for a celebration! Young Musicians in our Earthsong programme have been playing and learning music together as part of ‘Start with Ensemble’ all year and they are excited to share this with you.
We have three events this year – one for our new starters, another for our improvers who have been learning for a little longer, and one final celebration event for our intermediates, who have been receiving weekly instrumental lessons for the past three years.
Join our talented young musicians and share in their achievements in the transformed Beacon Hall to celebrate all stages of our Earthsong ‘Start with Ensemble’ groups.
