Our organisation is not limited to providing opportunities to one specific group of musicians or young people with a particular background or need.

However, we endeavour to ensure our individual projects are designed to inspire musicians with specific and unique opportunities to aid their own personal development.

Through our work, we aim to:
Inspire young people to build on their own personal musical experiences;
Challenge young people to stretch themselves in a supportive and welcoming environment;
Develop musicianship and musicality between our young people through professional guidance;
Be creative and innovative when designing music projects and events to suit the needs of specific individuals or groups by providing unique opportunities.
OUR OUTCOMES

Make strong and lasting local, national and international friendships with fellow musicians;
Experience a high level of music making by creating and sharing music with young people, professionals and audiences alike;
Develop their ability to speak different languages, particularly English;
Develop their leadership and ensembles skills alongside confidence and independence;
