Free music sessions for young aspirants at Salisbury
The Salisbury Arts Centre is hosting a new series of free sessions and workshops for music development, to young people aspiring to be musicians, through a new project specifically designed to help them enter the music industry,
Thanks to the funding offered by Wiltshire Music-Service, budding musicians have now the opportunity to try out popular music forms. The Salisbury Arts Centre, with this support, will be launching a series of workshops/performance sessions. Starting with the New Year, informal sessions will be held in the Salisbury Arts Centre, along with a series of outreach workshops, providing participation places to the Tidworth and Bemerton Heath communities. Additionally, a new song-writing class will be launched as a spring workshop for young people. Popular music genres and new compositions can be explored here along with opportunity to perform and record.
The Manager of engagement at the arts centre, Simon Morris, said that there are so many talented people here who have potential to make it to the music industry, but don’t have the resources. The next free session of development opportunity will be a workshop on career advice and the music industry, to be held at the Salisbury Arts Centre, on 20th December, Saturday, between 2PM & 5PM.
