Our Music Fellows
The Bedford School Music Fellowship Programme gives pupils a wonderful opportunity to work with some of the finest musicians on multiple occasions throughout the school year. Each faculty of the music department (Brass, Keyboard, Strings, Vocal, Woodwind) has one appointed specialist, who visits the school on at least two separate occasions in the school year. The Fellows provide a wide range of musical activities, including giving recitals, directing ensembles, leading workshops, performing with school groups and generally being inspirational guides to our young musicians.
