Parents

Calling all parents

Is your child mad about music? Could they be?

If so, at what age should they start learning to sing, play an instrument or join a band? What’s out there for them in your local area and how might you support them?

Learn Music London is a collaboration between international music examination board ABRSM and national membership organisation Music Mark, and is backed by the GLA. The Learn Music London website signposts parents to their local music service based on where they live and highlights the opportunities available. The website also features videos of young musicians and their parents talking about the many benefits of music-making, including making friends, improving self-confidence and learning from mistakes.

By selecting their borough on the website, parents are taken directly to their local music service to begin a conversation about how their child can start their musical journey, or take their music to the next level.
