Young Music Makers Serenades Kentish Town

Members of YMM Big Band entertained the crowds at two local NW5 festivals on Sunday, 10th September. Despite the somewhat blustery weather, audiences at the York Rise Street Party and Lady Somerset Road Street Festival enjoyed jazz from our senior students led by Simon Da Silva. See our Facebook page for videos.

New Strings Group

A huge welcome to our newest strings tutor, Hannah Gardiner, who will be joining us to run Taster Violin from 11.00 - 11.30am. Hannah is also available to teach 1-to-1 violin and viola lessons. 

Get Your Grade 5 Theory in a Year!

Our Musicianship classes with Owen Dawson will support students to pass their grade 5 theory within a year. Owen will follow the grade 5 theory syllabus and work through the book with the class, as well as using aural exercises to help improve core musical skills.
