Many children in Cornwall face barriers to making-music. They may lack confidence, or feel uninspired by the choices available, which may not accommodate their learning differences. Or their families may simply be priced out by expensive lessons and instruments.
We’re working hard to change this. Over the last six years, we’ve run a series of projects to make it easier for young people in Cornwall to make music – together, for themselves, and for real-world audiences.
We’ve seen young people completely transformed – in their confidence, skills, and sense of possibility – by the music they’re creating.
Our Cornwall Youth Noise Orchestra has been featured by BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 3, The Guardian, Electronic Sound, BBC Spotlight, as well as wowing live audiences at special showcase concerts, bringing electronic sounds to Falmouth University, the Maritime Museum and local community spaces.
Children and their parents have told us we’ve made an invaluable difference to those children’s lives and opportunities.
But this work costs money. We need funds so we can:
- Offer sessions
- Work with established artists
- Buy and maintain intuitive and exciting instruments and equipment
- Pay essential overheads
- Build a provision that’s even bigger and more exciting for children
Any donations will be greatly appreciated, and mean we can continue to deliver these vital and inspiring sessions: https://donorbox.org/make-a-donation-to-moogie-wonderland
