Playing the viola can be a wonderful experience which is often not discovered early enough in musical education. Recently there has been a huge interest worldwide in developing the viola for younger children, resulting in a good choice of small instruments and lots of new repertoire for solo and ensemble violas. Having worked with many different viola groups, I was keen that they should all have the chance to meet up and experience masterclasses, recitals and tuition specific to the viola.

Luckily my enthusiasm has been welcomed by a team of wonderful players and teachers who are keen to share their wealth of knowledge and experience with your talented youngsters. I hope this will be a new and interesting experience for them.
