In addition to these lessons we also offer a structured, progressive ensemble programme at our midweek music centres and organise performances and projects to complement pupils’ learning. We work alongside our schools to support the delivery of music education across the Borough. Over 12,000 instrumentalists and vocalists in Hounslow already learn with us – come and join them!
