There is still time to donate to the Miles for Music in March campaign to ensure live classical music is available for you and the rising generations of music lovers in years to come. Your help means we can engage the most talented musicians from around the world, run all the other charitable projects like the String Scheme and the Surrey Hills Young Composer Competition, and provide vital performance platforms for gifted young artists. We can also develop new projects for children to introduce them to the exciting world of music. Any contribution you make will be very gratefully received. Thank you!
