The Music Teacher’s Board is excited to announce the launch of the ‘Have A Go’ project in partnership with the London Mozart Players. Centred around MTB’s Pre-Grade Introductory exams, ‘Have A Go’ is a collaborative project designed to provide some support and encouragement for those who wish to try their hand at playing a new instrument. This has been organised as part of the LMP’s 100K Challenge, which aims to give 100,000 children and young people the opportunity to access the arts. You can learn more about the LMP 100k Challenge here.
Pre-Grade Introductory is an entry-level exam designed to be achievable within 1-3 months of starting to play. This exam involves performing just 3 short pieces and some basic technical exercises. Players from LMP have provided guidance and tips on how to approach these grades for the instruments featured in the project, in the form of supporting videos. The orchestra has also recorded string quartet accompaniments for some recital pieces which are featured on the Music Teachers’ Board’s Pre-Grade Introductory syllabuses for you to play along with, making practising and learning even more fun.
