This is a call out for contemporary musicians aged 11-14, living or attending school in the Broadland District!

We are delighted to have received some funding from Broadland Youth Advisory Board to run 6 sessions of Band Workshops at Thorpe St Andrew School and Sixth Form.

The idea of the project is for young people to meet with like-minded peers and form new bands, create new music and work alongside professional music teachers and musicians.

At the end of the 6 weeks it is hoped that all musicians will have recorded their own piece of music, either original or a cover.
