SUPPORTED BY

Music for Everyone is a dynamic arts organisation based in Nottingham. Formed in 1983, it is committed to creating opportunities for singers and instrumentalists of all ages and abilities to make music and experience the exhilaration of high quality, live performance.

Each year Music for Everyone provides a season of intensive, short courses, bothchoral and instrumental, for children and young people as well as for adults. It alsoleads a wide range of regularly rehearsing groups.

The Summer School is an extension of Music for Everyone’s successful weekend music courses. These follow a similar format to that of the Open University: people from all parts of the community enrol on an open access basis and receive ‘distancelearning’ packs which support their independent preparation for the event.
