Instrumental for Schools
Every year we set aside free tickets for secondary school students in Coventry, Warwickshire & Solihull who are studying music, learning an instrument, or just have a passion for classical music.
About the programme
The Instrumental programme offers free tickets to for young people to experience some of the best live performers in the world.
Over an academic year, schools from Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull have access to 1000 free tickets across our concerts. We’re also working with Coventry Music Hub to offer free music workshops alongside your visit.
We can also work with schools to design and customise their visits, with options to include backstage tours, pre-concert talks and off-site visits by Arts Centre staff.
Supporting curriculum goals
Instrumental supports teachers in achieving Music curriculum aims, specifically to:
- ‘Listen to, review and evaluate music across a range of historical periods, genres, styles and traditions, including the works of the great composers and musicians’
- ‘Understand and explore how music is created, produced and communicated, including through inter-related dimensions’.
All we ask from participating schools to receive their free tickets, is for a member of staff to liaise with our Group Bookings Coordinator, and request the tickets via our online form.
Please provide 14 days notice if you can no longer attend a concert or additional activity, (charges may apply). Full details and terms and conditions will be sent to schools in advance.
