Bury Music Service Ltd. is the biggest provider of musical instrument lessons and other music support within the borough. We teach in all the high schools and most of the primary schools.
We offer tuition on all orchestral and concert band instruments plus piano and guitar. Pupils have free use of their chosen instrument. We also provide vocal coaching in some of the high schools.
We have an excellent teaching staff and almost all are music graduates who are selected for their teaching ability and caring attitude towards children. Our pupils achieve outstanding results in national music examinations, largely with the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music and also Trinity College London.
We are highly involved with the Wider Opportunities Project and provide this service to an increasing number of primary schools. During each spring term, we are involved in ‘Children of Bury Sing’ in which some thirty two primary schools take part at Bury Leisure Centre.
We work closely with nursery departments of primary schools, providing music and movement classes to children in the early years foundation stage.
Bury Music Service is also responsible for running Bury Music Centre. We have several orchestras, bands and ensembles as well as groups formed especially for specific occasions and run by staff in their own time. Some two hundred and fifty young people aged eight to eighteen are involved; they play in a tremendous variety of performing units, including bands, orchestras and groups graded to cater for the different levels of age and experience.
