The Youth Music Centre was established in Bigwood House, Hampstead Garden Suburb in 1967 and since that time has become one of the foremost Saturday morning music schools in London. The essential aim of YMC is to welcome all children from the age of two to eighteen years into our community and to help them achieve their highest musical potential within a creative and happy environment, where they can come together to enjoy making music. YMC provides classes in musicianship skills for the very youngest children before they embark on instrumental lessons at the age of five or six. After a year of group lessons on the violin, viola, cello, double bass or recorder children are ready to have their first orchestral experience. We also provide theory classes up to grade 8 and voice/aural classes. We are proud to say that we have many children who stay with us for their entire music education.

About YMC Junior Orchestra

In the Junior Orchestra (for string and wind players) we aim to work on more advanced repertoire and therefore Grade 6 is expected from violinists and a good Grade 5 violists and cellists.

Wind players should be grade 6 and above. orchestra on an occasional basis.

Practice parts are given and it is of great benefit if students could look at them during the week beforehand.

Some might need to take their music to their teachers for a little extra help.

This orchestra benefits of the additional wind section which enables us to play repertoire like Haydn and other classical Symphonies.

This year we are looking at Schubert’s First Symphony, themes from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker and pieces by Elgar and Purcell.
