“Music…is the language which penetrates most deeply into the human spirit…”
– Yehudi Menuhin, Founder of Live Music Now
For nearly 50 years, Live Music Now has worked alongside those with reduced access to live music, in care homes, schools, hospitals, hospices and community settings across the UK. Our approach to live performance is one of collaboration: listening to the participants and the people that support them to craft engaging concerts, creative music sessions and residency programmes.
Over 300 professional musicians underpin everything we do at Live Music Now. Our training and mentoring programmes encourage them to become flexible facilitators and communicators, providing them with skills they can use across their careers.
Live Music Now’s approach, research and expertise has developed since 1977, realising the vision of its founders, legendary violinist Sir Yehudi Menuhin and Live Music Now Founder-President Sir Ian Stoutzker.
The impact and feedback received from participants and staff over the years we’ve been in operation has demonstrated the value of our work.
