Weekly music sessions

We have two music groups that run on Monday evenings during term time. In both groups students are supported on a one-to-one basis by a volunteer tutor who will work with the student throughout the course of the year. Sessions take place in Workshop 3 at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.

Sessions are free to access but we suggest a donation of £3 per session to contribute towards our running costs.

If you have a child or young person with additional needs and would like to join one of our groups please email melodymusicmaking@gmail.com or complete an online form here.
