There are a broad range of community projects running in the East Midlands region - from amateur choirs, bands and swing groups to portable music studios and community work with symphony orchestras.

There are also a host of advisory and support organistions who offer guidance on everything from working with children to borrowing music. If you are an artist interested in community music you will find links to organisations who offer training and professional development opportunities here.

This section covers some activity on a county by county basis and some of the national umbrella organisations that support this work.
