Contact Details

We offer Instrumental and Vocal lessons to small groups or individuals.  Lessons can start at any age as long as the instrument size is suitable, or we can offer musicianship groups as a starter for very young pupils.

Pupils can hire instruments from Music for Bedford Borough, and pupils on Free School Meals pay 50% of the cost.

Our teacher members are all DBS checked, have regular access to training and support, and meet to share expertise, ideas and enthusiasms on a regular basis.

Once pupils have reached a certain standard they are invited to join school music ensembles and choirs, or to join the Friday Flyers or Saturday Morning Music Centre groups available through the Coop or the Borough. (See web site for further details)

We also encourage pupils to seek out further opportunities offered by the Bedfordshire Music Trust.
