Foundation Wind and Brass

Foundation Wind and Brass

Discover wind and brass instruments through fun, musical adventures!

Foundation Wind and Brass gives children the best of both worlds – they’ll start their instrumental journey while building strong musical foundations through singing!

Young people will develop all those essential music skills (keeping the beat, following rhythms, hitting the right notes) by joining both our recorder ensemble and Foundation Singing sessions. These fun activities create the perfect launchpad for when they get to try flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoons, trumpets, trombones, tubas, and French horns in the summer term. Don’t worry about which instrument might suit your child – we’ll guide you on age-appropriate options and help find the perfect match.

It’s a hands-on, exciting way for children interested in wind or brass instruments to grow their musical abilities while having a brilliant time!

45-minute ensemble class (with exciting instrument trials in Summer term) + 60-minute group singing and musicianship class
