WORKERS’ MUSIC ASSOCIATION

Summer School of Music 21-27 August 2017

their time to the Summer School simply for satisfaction of seeing people improve and blossom in their own kind of music. It’s also an opportunity for you to get out of your musical ‘comfort zone’ and try something different. Many of our past students first attended the summer school for one course but are now involved in 4 or 5 of the different courses available. Ingestre Hall is in Staffordshire about 6 miles from Stafford in beautiful countryside. It is owned by Sandwell Authority and has been refurbished as a residential centre for Performing Arts. So you have it all. A week in rural Staffordshire, supportive and experienced tutors, a purpose built centre, comfortable accommodation and an opportunity to spend a week with others who love music. You can indulge yourself in your own style of music or try something. It’s all there for you.
