We work with top-tier mentors to provide personalised, one-on-one music support for young musicians (including developing an individual training plan, known as an ITP).

Our flexible, hour-long sessions—available in person or online— are designed to fit in with your schedule and can cover a wide range of topics, for example:

  • music exams
  • conservatoire and university auditions
  • career planning
  • songwriting
  • music production

We can also help with challenges such as performance anxiety or managing practice schedules.
Whatever your current concerns, our experts are here to help.

Our team includes professional musicians, conductors, composers, engineers, producers, and university tutors, all passionate about helping you reach your full potential.
