Learning music is a wonderful endeavor, and opportunities to get creative or collaborate with other musicians can be truly magical. Throughout the year, there are several performance opportunities where students work with professional artists and learn staging techniques. We believe in providing a well-rounded musical education, striving to incorporate as many professional elements from the contemporary music industry as possible.

Instruments we teach

Music Workshop tutors have just as much commitment to teaching as they do passion for music, and we are always looking for new creative ways for people of all walks and ages to engage and enjoy it.

So, just starting out...? Looking to get back in the groove...? Or looking to reach new heights...?

Or maybe you just wanna have some fun and make some noise…! Wherever you want your journey through music to take you, we’re here to fuel your passion, and support your progress.

Group Music Making & Performance Workshops

REGISTER

Jam Lab is a 5-week workshop program running twice per term, for individual musicians to experience working with, playing in, and performing as a band on a regular basis.

Group Music Making and Performance encourages creativity and connects a range of local musicians of all ages to each other. If you sing or play an instrument, and want to perform and collaborate with other creatives… Sign up to Jam Lab and join the experiment!

Once booked into the lab the Muw team will arrange all you Muwvers & Shakers into age and instrument-appropriate music groups. Over the following weeks, alongside your bandmates and under the guidance of Music Workshop tutors; you will learn, rehearse, and develop your own live set which you will perform at the Jam Lab Half Term Hullaballoo.

Sign up for subsequent series and rejoin your bandmates, or be adventurous and join some new ones!

“Well… where to start! Music Workshop is simply FANTASTIC. ALL of whom I have had the pleasure of spending any time with from this wonderful school of music have been so positive, so energetic and SO full of love for what they do that one cannot help but leave feeling energised and ready for anything!”

— Susannah Orpwood

“Feel so grateful to be part of such an awesome community of students and tutors. From the moment you join you are made to feel welcome no matter what level you are. Performances are a big deal here and so much hard work and effort goes into them. If you're looking to learn, have fun and be part of a wider group of musicians, look no further. This place has soul.”

— Miriam Benmiloud

“We have moved a lot and experienced many different music tutors. When we discovered Music Workshop, we soon realised these teachers were in a different league! Their joy of music shines through, and it is catching! For all of them, this is far more than just a job. They have given our daughter patience, understanding, true inspiration and fun, fun, fun! Private lessons and a chance to perform with other players, from complete beginners to advanced, they bring music alive! We can personally recommend Kim for drums; he is the best!”

— Melissa Burt-Andrews Waddell

Our cultural partners

We’re proud that our work within our community over the past 10 years has been recognised by collaborations with Bath Spa University.

This allows us to enhance potential pathways for students’ progression, improve the resources, venues, and techniques we can share with our students, and will ultimately allow us to access more people who could benefit from musical engagement.

By working together with Bath Spa University we wish to be able to engage entire communities and create a fully inclusive experience of music, closing loops and opening doors.
