Arts education charity in South Oxfordshire for adults and children. Yamaha Music School

Matrix Arts Centre is an arts education charity providing a warm, friendly environment in a purpose-built building for children and adults to enjoy the arts in South Oxfordshire. It is our wish that creative education, presented in a friendly and approachable way, should underpin all our children’s courses. Our biggest offering and one key to our success - our Yamaha Music School - is a fantastic

example of this. We also have art lessons, dance classes, individual music tuition on several instruments, fitness sessions, an adult community choir, and our 'MUSIC AT MATRIX concert series'. See our website for more information: https://www.matrixartscentre.org.uk

Registered Charity Number 1022336

Our Yamaha students are busy learning their ensembles for the annual summer concerts on 21 June. Here's our YMS graduate ensemble from last year's senior concert - an arrangement of the 2nd movement of Grieg's Piano Concerto with Martin Ludden at the piano.

Martin started his music with us aged 5, so it was an emotional time for parents and teachers alike! He is now coming to the end of his first year studying Oceanography at Southampton University.

Our Yamaha Music School courses foster musical sensitivity: we sing, play and - importantly - create. Every activity from the very beginning leads to the children making and performing their own music as well as expressing music that already exists. These children singing happily will soon finish their first book, having started in November last year. New classes starting soon - open day this Sunday - email us to book!
