• enjoyment and understanding of music
• sensitivity - awareness of the expressive power of music
• aesthetic judgement - independent thought and evaluation
• creative thought and action - imagination and interpretation
• intellectual skills - spatial thinking, numeracy, mental 'stretching'
• social skills - cooperation, communication, leadership, team-work
• physical and perceptual skills - coordination, speed and accuracy of response
• personal attributes - self-discipline, self-reliance, concentration, attention to detail, initiative, commitment

We have approximately 200 students, mostly children from 6-18 years old who live mainly in Malahide and Portmarnock. Approximately 50 are secondary school students and we have about 20 adults learning with us.

All the lessons are individual except for theory, pre-instrumental, choir, orchestra and recorder club which are group lessons.
