Music is an important part of life at York House and our Director of Music arranges a full programme of lessons and activities.    It is no surprise, therefore, that we achieve a number of senior school music scholarships.  More importantly, perhaps, we aim to instil a lifelong love of music in every child - listening as well as playing.  

All the children have regular class lessons. There are two choirs and many ensemble groups, including a full orchestra.  Individual music lessons are also provided and frequent concerts for parents and families give everyone the chance to show what they can do.

To make music, someone must first write it, so our Music Studio contains ten computers and keyboards.  This allows the children to compose as well as play their own work, using specialist music software.
