Synopsis

Warwickshire County Music Service (CMS) provides instrumental, vocal and curriculum music across a full range of educational settings as well as through our five music centres located in each of the five regions of Warwickshire.

We also provide lots of opportunities for young people to come together and make music at our music centres by providing a whole range of activities such as bands, choirs and orchestras.

For our most able students we have the County Performance Groups which are groups that represent the whole of the county. There is an orchestra, wind band, steel orchestra, choir, early music consort, jazz orchestra, viol consort and rock and pop institute, each giving students the opportunity to develop their skills to the highest possible level of achievement.

Globalbeats is the title we give our world music strategy. It is all about giving skills to our practitioners and teachers in how to use sets of multicultural instruments.
