Raised by Music

Your child’s musical journey – fully supported

Raising children in a nourishing and immersive musical environment supported by positive relationships develops creativity, problem solving and analytical skills, physical coordination, discipline, academic achievement and – most importantly, a sense of belonging, fulfilment and FUN!

Raised by Music is a small community foundation based in South London. Our mission is to nurture the highest standards of musicianship in young people, with a particular focus on broadening access to high quality music education and increasing participation in classical music from under-represented backgrounds.

Raised by Music at Immanuel & St. Andrew Primary School

Our 2024 cohort of scholars at Immanuel & St. Andrew Primary continue to make fantastic progress! They have had a busy start to the academic year, performing to prospective parents at the school’s open morning on 9th October and travelling to Guy’s Chapel, Kings College London to perform with the fabulous Water City Music who organise performance opportunities for young musicians at striking venues across the UK.

How does Raised by Music work?

Raised by Music not only offers its scholars 1:1 weekly lessons on their instrument with a leading industry professional but our scholars also attend a supervised practice session every day of the school term, delivered by Raised by Music assistant tutors. Instrumental lessons and practice sessions take place during the school day.

We expect families to support scholars’ practice at weekends and in school holidays, and we run workshops for parents/ carers to equip them with the skills needed to support practice at home.
