B:and Together
Our Gospel and Jazz workshops are a subsidised music making programme for 11-19 year olds. The amazing young musicians that have been learning with us performed at Mostly Jazz Fest last year and they're back!
Our Gospel and Jazz band will both be performing and we can't wait to hear what they've been learning on the big stage once again!
