Team Music is who we are - students, parents, school. We work together to support all musicians and music making at Simon Balle. Everyone is part of this and has a role as part of the team.
‘Your work and dedication are above and beyond expectations. All musicians not only learn and have fun, but they feel part of a unique community, which is rare to find!’



Our Music Ambassadors are an important part of our team and support younger musicians.
