Group Sets

Instruments & Accessories

Group music-making develops participants’ social and emotional skills and playing regularly in a group fosters listening, empathy and team-working, and it boosts mental health and general wellbeing.

Any enthusiastic player will be able to lead their group in fun and fulfilling group music-making sessions, reaching performance level in just 8 to 10 sessions.

The styles and instruments are easy to learn, inclusive and fun.
The instruments are natural and tactile, making them particularly effective in SEN settings.
The teaching support is designed for non-specialists and includes “how to” videos, warm-ups, cultural background and lesson plans.
The approach has been tried and tested in support groups, homes, hospitals and other community settings all over the world.

And everyone benefits, whatever their age or ability: it’s a health tonic and stress reliever, and especially valuable in these difficult times.

Covide Note:

All you need is a well ventilated space and room for the players to sit in a circle. If there’s not enough space for distancing, players can mask up as it’s all about “learning by doing” – copying and following the leader – and most of the communication is by hand signals and eye contact. After each session just wipe down the instruments with sanitiser. For more detailed COVID advice click here.
