Young Sounds: Connect
Connect is a programme from Young Sounds UK working in partnership with Sunderland Music Hub.
It helps young people who show musical potential but may not be able to access 1-2-1 music lessons due to financial barriers. It provides young people with lessons, a bursary, individual learning plans that put our students at the centre of their learning and access to ’Get Togethers,’ which provide a range of musical experiences with other young people across the city.
Another strand of the programme is to help connect young musicians across the city; showing musical progression opportunities and providing access and pathways to more music.
Emma Mapplebeck is our local Connector in Sunderland.
‘This is a wonderful programme to be a part of and it is lovely to see how our young people can progress in their music making and gain confidence with their abilities. There are also many opportunities to make music across our city, so please get in touch!’
