Bury’s leading provider of music education

We are a not-for-profit organisation, and the only music education provider in Bury endorsed and supported by Arts Council England. Our passionate, friendly teachers are all fully qualified and consistently deliver high exam pass rates.

What we're all about

Discipline
through creativity

Music can be incredibly powerful in educating children, not just in the handling of a musical instrument, but in the values and strengths they’ll carry throughout their adult lives.

Confidence
through expression

A big part of learning a musical instrument is about building self-confidence. We love to see our students taking pride in expressing themselves through their music.

Connection
through experience

Students will form strong and lasting bonds in our groups, born out of their shared passion for music and the wonderful events and performances they’ll experience together.

About our ensembles
