You can join our music groups for free if you also have lessons with us, or for a small charge if you don’t.

The available groups are listed below. Where a grade level is indicated, you are likely to be comfortable in the group if you are playing music around this level. We do not require you to have taken any exams, and there are no auditions. You are welcome to try out with a group to find out whether it suits you.

To join a group, contact us.
