Group Tuition for Music Therapy
The Nepean Handbell Ensemble is an exciting way for people with special needs to communicate through their music. The Nepean Handbell Ensemble is made up of members of the public as well as people with special needs. They use Schulmerich Handbells and a large variety of percussion instruments to create music for performance.
Our philosophy is “Music is for all people” .
By using suitable musical arrangement it is possible for professional and amateur musicians (despite any disabilities) to successfully perform as equals. Ensemble members are involved in decisions about repertoire and performances.
The Ensemble is available for bookings. Fees are available on application. All funds raised are used to purchase music and equipment for the ensemble.
Our purpose:-
- to provide adults with special needs the opportunity to work together in music at an advanced level.
- to give public performances throughout the year.
- to help and encourage ensemble members
- to reach their musical potential.
- to demonstrate to the wider community that people with special needs are able to contribute to the arts.
