Introduction

One of Making Music's key commitments is to involve more young people in music making. Click here to read more.

Through Making Music's Young People's Programme a substantial library of youth project case studies has been developed.

These case studies are designed to highlight and share best practice from the experiences of Making Music member groups undertaking youth projects.

Many of the case studies arise from Making Music's two national youth programmes tuned in (2001-2002) funded by Youth Music and The Carnegie UK Trust and RESOUND (2003-2005) funded by Youth Music, Scottish Arts Council, The Carnegie UK Trust and Headley Trust.
