For ages 14–15

This course is for instrumentalists, singers, composers or song-writers from any musical background with an open attitude to collaboration and inventing music (of all styles) alongside others.

The course takes an accessible, practical, hands-on approach so there’s no requirement to be able to read or notate music. All participants must be in school Years 9 and 10 and meet one of the RCM Sparks eligibility criteria.

This free course runs from August to April with approximately one workshop or short course per month.
