**About Make Music**

Make Music is the name for all of The Glasshouse’s music making classes, groups, ensembles, and activities for schools and music educators. People of all ages, experience levels and backgrounds sing, play, and create with us. Whether starting from scratch or polishing some skills there’s a class, choir, band, or studio to suit everyone.

Make Music: Adults and Families fun, informal classes, and groups suitable for people of all abilities - including those who like a bit of a challenge. Daytime and evening classes to enjoy at The Glasshouse or online at home.

Make Music: Young People supports any young person aged 4 to 25 find their voice, learn a musical instrument, write, and produce their own songs, meet others to play and sing with, build their confidence, and take part in exciting performances.

The Glasshouse runs a leading musical training that supports young musicians aged 4 - 19 to develop the skills and confidence to reach their musical potential. We encourage applicants from the most diverse backgrounds, making sure that everyone has the chance to study with us. Financial support is available through grants and bursaries.

Make Music: Schools activities and events invite school groups into the building to experience exhilarating live music. In Big Sing and Big Sing for Mini Singers children aged 5-11 learn new songs and sing with a live band along with hundreds of other children their age. School groups are also welcome to explore our fantastic building and watch our Royal Northern Sinfonia rehearse.

The Glasshouse understands that people learn in different ways and have different musical interests. We have come up with ways of teaching music that support people’s personal development as well as musical, designed around the needs of the person learning. We have written this down in our Inclusive Music Making Guide and everything we do is based on that.

Through all this we connect young people with visiting artists, and we work with Music Hubs and other partners to support young people to grow in the Northeast.
