What people are saying

'A lifesaver for teachers who have not taught music before. The quality is everything you would expect from this kind of orchestra.' Music Teacher Magazine, April 2023

'I was astonished at how well-thought out the user-experience is… everything at your
fingertips exactly where you need it.' Primary Music Magazine, February 2023

'The expertise of the people delivering the resources is immense. It’s an excellent way of enabling teachers to become music teachers because they can see the exemplification of how it should be done.' Tessa, Deputy Head Teacher, North London

'The work has really been done for me, I just have to go through it and enjoy it with the
children.' Sally, Year 1 teacher, Haringey
