Run by parents and professional tutors for parents of children who want to learn a musical instrument in a fun and supportive environment
Upcoming events
We usually meet Saturday mornings at Manorbrook School, Thornbury, and run a variety of activities for children aged between 4 and 18. Our aim is to remove barriers to learning an instrument and to make it fun! Due to Covid-19 we are now running an online programme of activities.

Details to follow shortly about the online programme on offer

Lockdown Project - Eye of the Tiger
During the Lockdown in 2020, our senior and training orchestra members worked independently to learn their parts to Eye of the Tiger and them came together to record this amazing video.

Lockdown Project - Ode to Joy
These junior musicians have been learning to play the pBone (a light-weight plastic trombone) for less than a year, with most of their lessons taking place virtually. Just look at what they can already do!
Musicians can also choose to take part in choir, theory lessons, ensembles, or swing/jazz ensembles
Swing Band
This is open to any brass or wind player and there’s some great swing, blues, jazz and rock music to play. We learn together how to improvise. The group is led by our trombone tutor, Chris White-Horne, who is also the musical director of the Thornbury Swing Band. The session runs at the same time as the choir and theory classes.
