10th February 2025
Music for Youth (MFY) is proud to announce the return of Together for Music, an inclusive music festival scheduled for 14th March 2025 at B:Music in Birmingham. This festival is part of MFY’s Regional Festivals in 2025, the UK’s largest festival for young musicians, running from February to April 2025 across over 20 locations nationwide.
Supported by Trinity College London’s Awards and Certificates in Musical Development qualification, in association with the Sounds of Intent programme, ‘Together for Music’ aims to empower and inspire participants through a day of engaging and interactive music-making.
Together for Music aims to bring together young musicians within the deaf, neurodivergent and disabled communities, providing a platform to perform, collaborate, and receive guidance from professional Music Mentors. Participants will have the opportunity to showcase their talents, engage with peers, and gain invaluable feedback to further their musical journeys.
The festival will feature open sign-up performance slots, workshops, and a marketplace, as well as talks from Trinity College London on the Awards and Certificates in Musical Development qualification. Highlights include interactive workshops for young musicians of all abilities, offering opportunities to create new compositions, explore their musical voice, and to contribute to a collective creative process.
