Music Builds Communities
A Community project for Newmarket and Area
“.....bringing people together through music!”
You only have to listen:
- to supporters of a football team with songs and chants
- to the audience at a rock concert singing along with the star
- to thousands singing along at The Last Night of the Proms
- to a choir at a concert or in church
- to people joining in carol singing
........to know that music brings people together.
So......
- Have you always wanted to sing but thought you were not good enough?
- Have you ever played an instrument and would love to have a go again? and maybe play with others.
- Have you wanted to play an instrument but didn’t know how to start
- Would you love to have opportunities to enjoy making music here in this area?
Whether you can already sing or play or not we would love to hear from you.
Music Builds Communities
