Read below from parents of students who took part on the most recent course (February 2020). 

“I just wanted to say that Henry really enjoyed his course.  He was one of the least able musicians but he was really inspired by the other musicians and never made to feel he didn’t belong there.  He has very little confidence so I can’t actually believe that he stood up in front of all those people and played an instrument.  What a huge step for him even after just 2 days. Thank you again.”

“Max had such a great time at Myband and I wanted to express my thanks. It’s really quite remarkable what those children achieved in just two days and it’s definitely inspired Max to do more.  He’s finally got the chance to see what else he can do with his talent rather than just moving from one piano grade to another and doing nothing in between”.

Pictured are the group photo of all 22 young musicians who took part in the course.
