Testimonial from our
Online Easter Music Festival 

" I wanted to say a big thank you to you and the rest of the MMA team for putting on the Easter music festival. My son really enjoyed himself and got a lot out of it, the course was really well organised and offered a wide variety of musical education in a fun and accessible way. The flexibility to join the different workshops was great, all the teachers were full of enthusiasm and were incredibly welcoming to newcomers."
