Truro School Unveils Exciting Music Project: Celebrating Musical Education, Community Partnership, and Excellence

Truro School is proud to announce the launch of the Truro School Music Project, a transformative initiative that will enrich the musical landscape within the school, the city of Truro, and the county of Cornwall.

With a firm belief in the pivotal role of music in education and community and cultural life, the Truro School Music Project will see the creation of a new multi-million-pound music centre and a refurbished multi-use Hall, fostering musical participation, excellence, and inclusion within the school and the broader community.

Scheduled for completion at the start of 2026, the Truro School Music Project will create a hub for musical education and aspiration in Cornwall, offering state-of-the-art facilities for pupils, the Truro community, and beyond. This project also paves the way for improved facilities to support pupil wellbeing too.

The project aligns with Truro School’s rich musical tradition, which delivers around 40 annual concerts and gigs, an annual Summer Festival, individual music lessons for over 250 pupils, and regular notable multi-show performances of major musicals.

The designs will be launched to the community during an event celebrating the importance of music and promises significant improvements. Read more > https://www.truroschool.com/community/truro-school-unveils-exciting-music-project/

On Saturday some of our star musicians joined the pros of Truro Symphony Orchestra to treat us to a superb concert in the Cathedral. The highlight was, of course, Bruch’s Violin Concerto with outstanding soloist (and past pupil) Molly Leigh. Mozart’s Jupiter Symphony sent the audience off, skipping happily home …
