Announcing new exhibition: Making Music Together
Barbican Music Library
16 January - 23 March
Making Music Together: A celebration of leisure-time music in the UK will show how thousands of groups get together to play and perform a wide range of music from jazz and folk to classical and barbershop.
The free exhibition features quotes, posters and film from Making Music member groups and a specially commissioned series of portraits of leisure-time musicians.
Across the country, around 13,000 leisure-time music groups comprising around 700,000 hobby musicians meet up regularly to make music in a wide range of locations, including houses, halls, garages, fields, and theatres.
Making Music Together celebrates the scale and breadth of this leisure-time music scene, and the positive impact taking part has on the hundreds of thousands of players and singers who get together week after week to make music.
Making Music Together runs at the Barbican Music Library, London from 16 January to 23 March.
Join us for the launch event on Monday 28 January, 6.30-9pm, RSVP: www.makingmusic.org.uk/exhibition-launch-london
