LEARN – PLAY – EXPERIENCE
Our Trust is called Turn Up the Music because music improves people’s lives.
The Turn Up The Music Charitable Trust aims to improve the lives of the Wakatipu Basin Community by providing quality music teaching, music making, performance opportunities and events. The trust has a particular emphasis on enriching children’s lives.
We want to get all children making music! We’re providing lessons for all ages. Children can progress from pre-school groups to beginner recorder groups, then to after school instrumental lessons and onwards to bands, orchestras and choirs.
