Voice Connect

Who It's For:

13-18 year olds who want to improve their singing and harmonising skills. This is a fantastic opportunity for young people looking to create links with the local music industry in Nottingham.

We offer a FREE trial session for all ensembles, so if you're interested in just getting an idea of what rehearsals are like, email rebecca.hart@nottinghammusichub.org.uk to set a trial up.

What It Includes:

You will get the chance to work on vocal technique, warmups, ear training, harmonisation, performing and much more. A range of genres are covered including Pop, R&B, Soul and Electronic music. There will also be multiple performance opportunities and collaborations with other NMS ensembles and the local music industry throughout the year.

Where & When:

Sessions will be held at the Old Bus Depot (Fishergate Point Studios, NG1 1GD) on Tuesdays from 6:30PM - 7:30PM during term time. Please get in touch with us if you'd like to try out the group but are finding this time difficult to manage.

If you'd like to give the group a try, just fill out our enrolment form by clicking the button below. We will be in touch soon!

Ensemble Fees

For young people who live in Nottingham City and/or study in a city state school, the annual ensemble fee for 2024-2025 is £56 (£17 concessions). Please note that you only have to pay one annual fee but can be part of more than one Music Hub ensemble (for example, your child may play in RHYO as well as Guitar Connect but just pay the ensemble fee once).

How to make the ensemble fee payment:
Log into Speed Admin to view your charge state. You will need to select ‘pay with card’ where you can then choose the invoice/s you would like to pay. Click ‘go to payment’ and make the payment in Stripe. For any questions, please email info@nottinghammusichub.org.uk

Discount/Financial assistance
Nottingham Music Service is committed to making its activities as inclusive and accessible as possible. We are able to offer discounted rates and support for pupils/families who wish to access our ensembles. For students to be eligible to receive a discounted rate for joining an ensemble they need to have an entitlement of free school meals, not including the universal provision for KS1 students.

For those who don’t meet the criteria above but are experiencing financial difficulty, a reduced ensemble subscription may be applicable. Please see the Subsidy Application document below for more information.
