Can you help keep the piano rockin for 24 hours?

It is with great sadness and disappointment that I have to announce that all our rock schools for this summer have now been cancelled. Although I'm sure that this will come as no great surprise to you, I was clinging to the hope that we could still offer some workshops, however I have been unable to secure any suitable insurance, and today I have been told that the venue for Cheltenham will not open again to the public until September.

I can only offer my most sincerest apologies and best hopes that we see you in 2021.

I shall be issuing the refunds over the next few days, please be patient, but also feel free to get in touch if yours is not forthcoming.

Do stay safe and well. I look forward to seeing you soon.

Peter

During the week in Cheltenham we created small groups for a 'Battle of the Bands'. Apart from songwriting and performing their song they had various tasks, including working with a web designer to create a basic website for their new 'band. Take a look at what they came up with - pretty impressive for the time they were given .......
