* St Columb’s School of Music

'The School is self-funded and has an extensive programme of outreach and community work, incorporating not only musicians, but other cultural groups and organisations from within the city. The aim is to provide a dynamic and supportive environment that can help young musicians discover their talents and flourish. With new facilities and a favourable location, the eventual addition of the best local instrumental teachers, concerts and competitions, as well as musical ensembles, students have the ability to unleash their full potential.'
