Participate

Participation, exploration and education are at the heart of sound.

We offer a range of creative workshops, discussions and masterclasses for all ages.

It’s got a special atmosphere where the audience are made very welcome. I haven’t experienced that at any other such gathering. I particularly enjoyed the discussion after the actual music, in which the musicians were available to be questioned by the audience. I found that brilliant.
