Live Music in your classroom!
We are so pleased to be able to share two opportunities for your pupils to experience high-quality live music in their own schools. Both series are fully funded by Greater Essex Music Hub for school-aged children and young people across Essex to enjoy.
For both series, you only need to sign up once and we will share the links for the concerts with you.
