Other ways to support

Support a musician: Pick one of our 2026 musicians and support them by paying towards their costs. We will introduce you to your ‘musician’ so you can meet them in person. Costs range from £1,000 – £2,000.

Back the Music in the Classroom project: Our work with local schools is a core part of our Festival. A donation of £2,000 would enable a series of song-writing workshops with 120 children in local primary schools let by pianist, composer and educator, Pete Letanka. Together they will create a new work which will receive its world première performed by the children at the Schools Concert during the Festival accompanied by Pete and young musicians from the Purcell School.

Enable a local primary school to attend the Schools Concert: There are many ways to help our thriving Learning & Participation Programme. Why not gift some free tickets to a local school for the price of £500.

Choose your favourite piece from the 2026 programme: Why not pick a piece and support us by donating £500 – £1,000 to its performance within the Festival

Support the Festival by helping us to pay for the musicians’ refreshments: We like to look after our artists and offer them food and drink during their time at the Festival. We’re happy to keep putting the kettle on, but it would be a tremendous help to us if someone could cover the costs of these refreshments. £250 would help us keep our musicians fed and watered – and very happy indeed!

Support the Festival by helping us to spread the word: Marketing comes at a cost. We feel that the Festival is worth shouting about far and wide. If you do too, why not help us cover our publicity printing costs (£2,000 total or a sum of your choice)
