This is an exciting time to join Redbridge Music Service as we have high and increasing numbers of pupils learning stringed instruments and an expanding lower string department following a recent initiative to encourage pupils to learn the cello. We have a range of ensembles, with access to Mini Strings from their very first violin lesson to the Symphony Orchestra which performs a range of demanding repertoire. Our string pupils achieve high results, and a good proportion of pupils go on to study music in Higher Education. It would be an asset to be able to teach viola and cello to at least Grade 1 level and/or double bass, but not a requirement. The ability to do so would open the potential for additional teaching hours.
