Why Bring Live Music into Your School?
We aim to inspire and educate the next generation, helping them discover the beauty of music. Imagine children learning about the oboe, marveling at the bassoon, and appreciating the coolness of the French horn!
Our school programs enrich children's lives, planting seeds of inspiration and igniting a curiosity and passion for the arts.
Our Musicians
Our team consists of passionate, professional performers who believe that music is the heartbeat of life. They are eager to share their love for music with students, encouraging them to explore, learn an instrument, and embrace a variety of musical styles.

"The children were totally immersed in this high quality experience and it was sheer delight to see their faces.
For many children this was a unique opportunity to be involved and exposed to classical music of a professional quality. A fantastic way to enrich our wider curriculum."
“For some of our children with more complex needs, the music alone was truly wonderful. These children do not often appear to focus on, or attend to, what is happening visually but, as we know, music fulfils many emotional and physical / sensory needs as well as being a real aid to communication for these children.”
Live shows for schools
All our shows are completely pop-up, require no power and are perfect for schools
