Get Musical is part of the NYMAZ Youth Music Programme for North Yorkshire. NYMAZ provides high quality music-making activities for young people who might not otherwise have the opportunity. NYMAZ is funded by the National Foundation for Youth Music. [www.nymaz.org.uk] These Workshops have also received funding from The Roger Stott Community Fund and The Elmtree Trust.
This image is a flashback to 2011 when Simon, Ethan, Harry and Simon formed their band HESH. Jump forward to 2016/17 and they are learning to drive, studying A-levels and in employment but music is still plays a huge part in their lives.
We are excited to announce we have been awarded funding by the Roger Stott Community Fund and The Elmtree Trust, (towards instruments), so we can provide additional NYMAZ sessions to support more budding young musicians with an opportunity to make-music. We look forward to sharing details of the sessions and the end results. Contact us to register your child's interest. Some playing and basic chord is desired but not essential. We will have fund learning together along the way.
