Welcome to our website.

At Leicester-Shire Schools Music Service, the health and well-being of our audiences, musicians, participants and staff is of the highest priority. The Coronavirus pandemic is a fast-changing and difficult situation for us all, and we are supporting musicians, staff, parents and our audiences as best as we can. We'd like to thank everybody for their understanding and patience.

If you are a school concerned about delivering music education safely, please visit our Covid 19 Information & Guidance page for the latest guidance for Leicester and Leicestershire schools on safe musical learning. We are continually reviewing our Risk Assessments with regard to Covid 19 - LSMS Covid 19 Risk Assessment 14.09.20
