About the Hub’s Lead Partner – Hull Music Service
Hull Music Service has 37 teachers who teach over 5000 children and young people in schools and colleges across the City. At its home – The Albemarle Music Centre (next to Hull Truck on Ferensway) the Music Service also provides a comprehensive ranges of groups, choirs, ensembles, band and orchestras. The Albemarle also hosts a range of additional workshops and opportunities for schools, including the stunning Indonesian Gamelan, African drumming, Brazilian Samba and West Indian steel pans. As well as being inspirational musical experiences, the workshops are tailored to complement, enrich and contribute to the wider school curriculum.
Through an increasing network of partnerships, the Music Service is engaging with schools and the wider community through a variety of projects, from singing to song-writing, composition to urban music as well as Live Music for Schools and large showcase events in the City’s premier venues such as the Middleton Hall, Hull Minster and regular events at the City Hall.
The Service is committed to supporting our most vulnerable young people, including supporting Children with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND) and Hull’s Looked After Children, by forging closer links with schools, key community organisations and specialist providers. This work will ensure that access to music opportunities in Hull is both equitable and relevant to the needs of the children and young people across the city.
In its role as Lead Partner of the Hull Music Hub, the Music Service would like to thank all of the City’s schools, families, children, young people and partner organisations (both in the City and further afield) for their ongoing commitment and passion for music-making. The Music Service is also grateful to Hull City Council for its sustained and generous support that enables so many of Hull children to have access to high quality music education.
