Introducing Nottingham Music Hub
Our vision is to provide a world class music education for all young people and support them to become their very best.
We are committed to providing inspirational music opportunities that are a source of joy, self worth and achievement. We offer progression routes that are affordable, inclusive and seek to overcome barriers to access.
We work in a diverse range of educational settings including secondary schools, pupil referral units, and special schools. Our main teaching is delivered in primary schools and our offer to schools is aligned with the National Plan for Music Education, offering schools bespoke packages where they can choose from whole class ensemble tuition, and hourly paid instrumental tuition for small groups and individuals.
By providing diverse music making opportunities, including ensembles and performances, we support young people to contribute to the cultural life of our great city.
As a child, I remember being so shy all of the time, and without the Music Service I would have stayed that way. I have made friendships, bonds and memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life, and I am so proud of everything I have done with RHYO, Intermediate Orchestra and Area Band, and none of it would have happened if not for you.

We work closely with other music hubs through the Music Education Hubs of the East Midlands (MEHEM). We also collaborate with arts and culture organisations across the city, including Nottingham Contemporary, Nottingham Playhouse, Nottingham Youth Orchestra, Baby People, Nottingham Trent University, Albert Hall, YMCA Digital, Confetti, National Youth Orchestra, Asian Arts Council, St Mary’s Church, St Peter’s Church, St John’s Church and Ultimate Flyby Orchestra (UFO).
Music Mark
Nottingham Music Hub is proud to be a Music Mark member. Music Mark advocates for a government supported, high quality music education provision for all school aged children and young people. It aligns with our mission of providing a music education that has values of diversity, equity and inclusion at its core.
Taking part in the Music Service concerts and seeing all the children inspired for their futures always reminds me why I got into teaching, and I think what you do is so wonderful and important. On behalf of the school and all our families thanks as always for all your efforts.
