Music groups are a fabulous way to make new friends and have musical fun together. There are the Devon groups, Devon Youth Wind Orchestra (DYWO), Devon Youth Jazz Orchestra (DYJO), Devon Youth Orchestra, as well as SAMMS on Saturdays in Totnes and South Devon Music Centre on Friday afternoons. Have a look at them and see which you might like to try, they’ll all welcome everyone to pop along, have a look, join in with some playing and decide if it’s for you. The food looks good too 🤩🎶

Her Majesty The Queen dies age 96
Tuesday, September 13, 2022 by Rose Sage | Uncategorized
Thursday the 8th of September 2022 will forever be marked by the passing away of our beloved Queen Elizabeth II. She meant so much to so many across the Globe. The Queen's legacy is one of dedication and duty but also that she was a Queen of the people. We all have our own individual memories of the Queen, some of us will have met her and some of us will have only known her through the TV or other media. Music played a huge part in her life and she loved so many different genres from classical to pop, from musicals to pipe bands and from jazz to folk. Indeed, she enjoyed many events including all the Jubilee concerts, the Party at the Palace and even she even enjoyed being awoken by a lone piper who played nearly every single morning at 9am. This is the importance of music in our lives, it invokes emotions and feelings and a sense of occasion and it creates memories. So when you next pick up your instrument remember, you may be about to perform a piece of music that will mean the world to someone, somewhere or you may just inwardly appreciate the sheer joy of knowing that someone great, someone eminent has listened to that same piece and held it in such high esteem.
