The Glasshouse

Origin8 is your chance to experience spontaneous music-making and to be creative.

The band meets weekly and works towards regular performances at The Glasshouse. You’ll learn new ideas and approaches to improvisation, develop your ability to play by ear and gain invaluable ensemble skills, and have good fun performing music from the jazz repertoire and beyond. Players often progress to our more advanced youth jazz ensemble Jambone.

We’d love to hear from you if you are interested in joining part of our Make Music Young People programmes. You can email youngmusicians@theglasshouseicm.org.

Our Young Musicians Programme is open to all children and young people, whatever their circumstances. We are keen to encourage applicants from the widest possible range of backgrounds and access a bursary where needed.

Here’s some more information about bursaries.
