If your young person doesn't know what they would like to play, or would like to have a go on other instruments you can simply pop in to "Give it a Go". We will have stalls set up for these instruments: Clarinet, Drums, Flute, Oboe, Saxophone, Bassoon, Keyboard, Tuned Percussion, Cello, Violin, Cornet/Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium and Tenor Horn
