Ensembles
Music For Everyone has a program of instrumental ensembles for different age groups and levels of experience in several popular instruments:
- Guitar
- Strings
- Clarinet
- Saxophone
- Mixed wind
Participants in ensembles learn new skills and experience the fun of playing with others of similar ability. Ensemble playing can also expand and enrich your musical repertoire to include music in many styles. Ensembles perform at Music For Everyone concerts and can also take part in other special projects and workshops.
Each ensemble has its own level of experience and ability, so if you would like to join an ensemble please contact the MFE office to arrange to meet with the ensemble tutor to discuss which ensemble is right for you.
