The Benedetti Foundation

At The Benedetti Foundation we unite, inspire and educate through joyful, high-quality music education for all. We work across the UK to create powerful musical experiences for everyone.

Sharing the joy

Sharing the joy
The joy of making music together is life-changing, yet many children never experience it. Our mass music-making 'Benedetti Sessions' inspire and bring young people together, building confidence, creativity and lifelong memories.

Reaching the right communities

Reaching the right communities
Many young people still lack access to music education. In communities where opportunities are scarce, our partnerships with schools and music services open doors, build skills and create lasting musical pathways.

Danya
