Would you like to join in the fun ???

Barnsley Youth Jazz Association are pleased to announce that we currently have some spaces available for children who would like to play a musical instrument.

If your child is unsure of which instrument they would like to play, we can arrange an instrument ‘try out’ so they can have a go at the various instruments. We are available to help and advise so they can choose the right instrument for them.

If you would like further information don’t hesitate to get in touch

Darton Village Féte

We had a great time on Sunday performing at the Darton Village Féte. The rain managed to hold off for most of the afternoon and the band enjoyed playing football in the park in their breaks.

Jazz orchestra member Alex even managed to win a fish called Tim! Luckily he already has a tank at home!
