The Glasshouse

Initiate is an exciting new practical ensemble that brings the nuts and bolts of music to life through popular and jazz styles. Initiate moves away from traditional theory and into a hands-on, creative environment where you learn by playing. It is designed specifically for Step Up level musicians who want to explore music language and theory in a way that feels relevant, using your instrument to understand the grooves and harmonies of the music you love.

This group is the perfect place to build the confidence and skills needed to progress into more advanced jazz and contemporary music-making in Originate. Whether you are looking to sharpen your musical toolkit or find your creative voice, Initiate offers a welcoming space to experiment, collaborate, and grow as a musician.
