Music for Wellness

Service Description

Many people enquire about music for "Wellbeing" courses. Not lessons in "how to play" the piano, violin, flute etc but simply the pleasure of hearing great music, learning about it, finding out about the context of the music and the role of the music in relaxation. Music is so good for mental health and well being we offer bespoke sessions where various musical genres are explored. There's a lot of listening and journal keeping, as well as going to live concerts, usually at Symphony Hall Birmingham, but also further afield. This course has been very popular with people with more time on their hands. We also run classes for children and adults who need support with improving language skills and speech. We do this with lots of rhythm work and where appropriate sung work. The focus is on articulation, repetition and focussing the brain on pattern and clarity. Once again, bespoke courses can be organised and session length and price are available upon request.
