Once again, we shall be bringing the Junior Orchestra, Junior Wind Band, Junior Jazz Band and the Intermediate Choir (totalling nearly 80 children) and 11 accompanying adults to stay at East Dene Centre and to perform five concerts in venues across the Island.

Chiltern Music Academy is an independent centre of vibrant community music making.

It was formed in July 2014 by a group of parents and music professionals passionate about the development of musicianship.

A carefully designed series of activities gives young musicians aged 4-19 every chance to fulfil their potential in an atmosphere of encouragement and fun.

The free concerts take place:

Sunday 26th May 7.30pm – St. Saviour’s Church, Shanklin
Monday 27th May 3.30pm – Ventnor Esplanade / 7pm St. Catherine’s Church, Ventnor
Tuesday 28th May 3.30pm – Rylstone Gardens, Shanklin
Wednesday 29th May 1.45pm – Donkey Sanctuary, Wroxall
