A large proportion of pupils receive individual instrumental lessons in school from our experienced and dedicated Visiting Music Teachers (VMTs). Many pupils also benefit from a selection of over 25 ensembles each week, including three orchestras, three choirs, two big bands, two large wind bands and a folk group, alongside numerous chamber ensembles. Highlights of our extensive concert schedule (see PDF download below) include: 

• The biennial school musical, for which the First Orchestra provides live musical accompaniment
• The LGS Big Band at Leicester’s Little Theatre
• Interactive GCSE and A Level concerts in partnership with Bardi Symphony Orchestra with concerto opportunities for pupils
• A choral extravaganza in which our musicians accompany the LGS Choral Society and perform alongside local primary school pupils. 

We are keen to share musical opportunities and performances with the local community. We raise money for local charities through concerts, take our leading instrumental ensembles on tours of local primary schools and our pupils frequently perform at events outside of school.  We also invite local schools to participate in masterclasses and instrumental taster days.
