Preston Music Centre
Lancashire Music Service runs a network of music centres throughout the County where young musicians of all levels of experience can play together in bands and ensembles and sing in choirs, offering an ideal progression route from Whole Class Ensemble Tuition alongside opportunities for more advanced students.
LAUNCHING 10TH OCT “Percussive Beats” – 4.30pm- 5pm
Our brand-new Percussion ensemble, featuring a wide range of different percussion instruments, including orchestral.
Led by our fantastic Percussion teacher, Trevor Bartlett, this group is a must for all aspiring musicians to hone their Rhythm and ensemble skills.
No experience or instruments necessary!
LAUNCHING 17TH OCT “Preston Young Voices” – 4pm- 5pm
Following on from our successful Choir project with Encounter festival, we are excited to launch our new Choir!
Under the direction of Julie Rayton, the choir will learn songs from a wide variety of genres and members will be encouraged to help choose repertoire that they enjoy.
Suitable for KS2/3/4/5
Band for All – 5.30 – 6.15pm
Directed by Sam French, this is an inclusive group for ALL instruments, from early beginners up to more advanced levels. With a popular music focus the group uses both written notation and learning repertoire by ear.
A great way to make music with other young people and have fun in an innovative and exciting band.
New members are always welcome to come along and visit the group. We ask that children have their own instruments (hire available) and have already started lessons, in any setting.
Ukulele group 5.15 – 5.45pm
Led by Richard Moss and open to complete beginners and to those who can already play, our exciting and fun Ukulele group is the ideal way to play your instrument with others. We even have instruments we can lend you if you don’t have your own!
Tuition is available on guitar, bass guitar, piano/keyboard, drums, voice, strings, brass and woodwind.
Joining ensembles and groups at Music Centre costs just £29 per term with our Silver Subscription, which includes membership of as many groups as you like, including our Inspire groups! Costs are kept low as they’re subsidised by our Music Education Hub grant.
