What people are saying

“I’d like to thank you and Joshua’s brilliant piano teacher for giving him the most wonderful start to experiencing music. We’re so grateful for the opportunity that Josh otherwise wouldn’t have had.”

“Thank you for giving our Rosie so much confidence this year. She has really enjoyed her lessons with you and has come on leaps and bounds.”

“We would just like to thank everyone at West Sussex Music for everything they have done for our children over the last few years. We have been so grateful for your inclusive and compassionate approach.”

“I loved meeting new friends and engaging in music. I love singing and was very happy giving out my best on our performances.”

“Andrew was engaging and allowed us to learn physically, not just reading and writing. loved showing our work off at the end of the day!”

“The teachers were really good, they showed us how to use the equipment and how to get the beats tidy!”

“I’d save up all my pocket money ever and use it for these workshops, if I could have them everyday! They are the best thing ever!”

“Wonderful environment, engaged teachers and varied activities. Very nice to have a performance at the end!”

“It was wonderful seeing the students’ genuine enthusiasm on the stage, it was heartwarming. Looking forward to the next one!”

“Our students will often not get the opportunity to be part of something like this, particularly with mainstream peers of the same age, or have the opportunity to perform in a venue like this evening, so giving them that experience, I’m sure will definitely stay with them forever.”

“It’s such a great opportunity for our students to work with other schools and choir leaders, and have the opportunity to perform in a fantastic event with a large audience.”

“Great community opportunity for students to work together as a year group and learn the skills required for successful performance”
