Description

Our Junior String Group is a brilliant opportunity for beginner string players, as well as those learning for a while who are up to around grade 2 standard, to join an ensemble designed especially for them!

Playing in a group is a huge support to learning your instrument; you’ll practice reading notation, finding the notes you’re learning and also develop lots of musicianship skills while having lots of fun playing.

The group is lots of fun, so why not come along and try it out?

Please contact us with any questions or to find out more about the group.
