Last Friday was our last session of the funded six month block with the fantastic team from Gorebridge. The students have worked so hard to become such an amazing improvising unit and it’s a real privilege to make music with them.

To mark our last session, we had a little “unplugged” performance and each participant received a CD with some recordings of their music from the past few months.

Here are the beautiful cards that the Upmo students made for us! Thank you for the music GB team! Hope we see you again soon 🎼🎶🎵
