The Brass and Percussion summer school is a fantastic opportunity for young musicians to have fun improving their skills over the summer, learning from Junior Guildhall’s experienced brass and percussion tutors in a supportive and encouraging environment. Participants will explore a varied and exciting repertoire covering all areas of brass music.
The week-long course is open to pupils from 11 to 18 years old from ABRSM Grade 3 Standard to Diploma. No auditions are required.
A limited number of fully funded places are available for the Brass and Percussion Summer School.

EVENT CANCELLED
After careful consideration of our duty of care to participants and volunteers, and consultation with local councils and other advisors, scaba has made the difficult decision to cancel both the Southern Counties Youth Band (SCYB) Easter Residential course and the Solo, Quartet and Ensemble competition due to take place in April.
In light of increasing concerns about, and spread of, the COVID-19 virus, we felt this was the best way to proceed during such an unprecedented global situation. We are very disappointed that we are unable to hold these events for the young players and community bandsmen and women in our area, but I am confident that we have made the right decision based on the available information at this time.
Plans will be made to reschedule both the Youth Band course and the competition later in the year, once the situation becomes more stable.
