Who We Are

Apollo Music Projects brings live classical music to children who might not otherwise experience it. Over 11 years, more than 6600 children have experienced the magic of live performance from classroom to concert hall, culminating in the thrilling spectacle of a full orchestra in concert.

Self-Confidence

by helping children to develop self-confidence and improve concentration

Performance

New schools for 2019

We are delighted to welcome four new primary schools to the Apollo programme: Arnhem Wharf, Lea Valley, St. Joseph’s, London Fields and Tyssen Primary Schools will all be starting in the next few weeks. We are delighted to be working with them, and look forward to a fantastic year. This takes the total number of schools for this year to 27, our highest total so far. We look forward to adding more schools next year, with several new schools already signed up to start in September.

Congratulations to Oliver Pashley, schools administrator and fab clarinettist!

We are delighted to announce that our Schools Administrator Oliver Pashley has been appointed as Sub-Principal Clarinet with the wonderful Britten Sinfonia. A fantastic job and well-deserved. Sadly this means that Oli will not be able to continue as Apollo Schools Administrator. He has been a great member of our team, and a pleasure to work with. We wish him all success in his new role. Csenge Herman, our General Administrator will take on the additional role of Schools Administrator later this month, so everything will continue to run smoothly.
