Owen Little Music goes fully online … soon!
As I’m sure you’re all finding, it’s taking a while to get the head space clear for anything other than just figuring out the weird new landscape we’ve all been thrown into. Virtual sessions for Owen’s Little Music Makers: we’re not quite there yet – I spent this afternoon taking part in a webinar for …

Signing off for holibobs
Dear all, A big thank you to everyone who supported this year’s Summer Mondays series and helped to make it a success. This is the good, slightly weird email/post that I get to write once a year. No session dates. No cunning plan on my part to try and tempt you all along. This is …
Beer Festival and Summer Mondays
Dear all, First things first, sorry, we’re not all off to a Beer Festival, although if you come along on Thursday you might get quite heady on gorgeous aromas! So, NB Thursday people, it’s the Beer Festival next weekend so we’ll be using the main Church on Thursday – enter the site via the pedestrian …
February half term 2019 (and lost property!)
Dear all, Having fought our way through many challenging sets of weather conditions, it appears we’ve made it to spring half term relatively unscathed. A big thank you for the continued support of all our regulars, and a very warm welcome to all newcomers. We’re now taking a week off and will be back in …

Music Makers – what a week!
Dear all, Firstly, a big thank you to those who made it out last Wednesday and Thursday. In the snow on Wednesday it took me an hour and ten minutes to get over to Chorlton from Stretford, including a particularly frustrating 15 minute stop-start – mostly stop! – crawl from opposite St Clement’s to turn …

Little Music Makers – not yet!
Dear all, I hope everyone had a good summer. Just very quick message to try and forestall people wasting their time. We start back in nine days’ time, not this week – we begin on Monday 10th September. I’ll be in touch again towards the end of this week with details of prices and offers …
Little Music Makers – we must be doing something right!
Dear all, When we get to the end of this term Music Makers will have been running for five complete years. This is quite exciting, I’ve just googled fifth anniversary – in terms of silver, gold, ruby etc. – and apparently it’s wood! Does that mean I can get a new violin? (Don’t tell the …

Nitty-gritty admin notice through to the summer
Hello Everyone, I hope you all had a good half term break. I spent mine doing gigs, invigilating at the Uni, and going into combat with the hordes of weeds that try to take over my allotment at this time of year (the best I can ever hope for is an amicable draw!!). As always, …
