Whilst it is always possible to find chamber music parts to suit every player at any level, it is not always so easy for very junior pupils to fit into an orchestra for the first time.
We have addressed this conundrum by introducing a fun junior musicianship class which takes place during the time when the junior string orchestra rehearses. This is taken by violin tutor Mary Martin who has much experience of leading workshops with young children.
The class size is small, but open to any pupil who doesn’t yet feel ready to join the orchestra.
