Spring Concert

We’re holding this term’s concert this Saturday, the last Saturday of term, March 29th, at 3.00pm in the Springwood Drama Studio. There’s no charge for this but donations are welcome.  As usual the programme will include a presentation of exam certificates followed by a variety of music performed by our groups and soloists, with refreshments and a raffle at the interval.

Donations of snacks etc for the refreshments and prizes for the raffle would be welcome either in the morning or at the concert. The groups included this time are: Sax Group, Brass Group, Recorder Groups, Youth and Senior Choirs, Beginner Band, Orchestra and Wind Band. If you or your child performs in one of these groups and can’t make the concert, please tell your group leader or me as soon as possible if you haven’t already. Performers should wear black and white. Please come along and ask your friends and relations even if you or your children are not involved.

Photographs may be taken during the concert and on Saturday mornings (both by individuals and for WNMC).  If you would prefer your child not to be included in these please tell us at the desk.

Make More Music

For children and young people just starting to learn an instrument, come and join our new starter band and singing group, and make more music! Playing in a group is a great way to develop your playing skills, as well as learning how to play together and to read music. Singing will help you learn pitch, rhythm and the other elements of music.

On Saturdays from April 2022, the starter band (10.30am to 11.10am) and singing group (11.20am to midday) will be open to new members. There are no auditions, and you certainly don’t need to be an expert — even if you have only learnt one or two notes on your instrument, we’ll make sure that you can take part.

We don’t have a strict age limit for the group; we expect most members will be in School Years 5 to 8. As members develop as musicians, they will be able to move on to our intermediate and community groups at no extra charge. Membership is £20 a term (equivalent to £2 a week) for primary-age children, and £30 a term (equivalent to £3 a week) for children at secondary school.
