RISING STARS

Meet some of the most inspiring musical talents to emerge from Youth Music!

“I once did a session in a classroom in London. The kids behaved appallingly, but there was one who was just transfixed by my playing and came up to talk to me afterwards. That kid ended up becoming Dizzee Rascal. Music education is so important, particularly for those children in difficult circumstances. Youth Music does important work.”

- Courtney Pine (Jazz Musician)
