Music performance in Manchester

“My hubs and our 3 children have all had lessons here, including guitar, piano, African drums and ukulele. Each and every one of them enjoyed coming to the shed. Their teachers have always been brilliant and adapted to meet their individual learning needs. One of my children has autism and Dawn went above and beyond to keep him engaged and moving forward with his learning when he was very rigid in what he wanted to do. Dawn and Dave are a credit to our community and I know they will only ever use the best teachers. How do I know this? They are parents themselves and their own children have undertaken lessons at The Shed!”

“I highly recommend Altrincham Music School! My son has been taught piano by Andrew for over 6 years now and he still enjoys it thoroughly and looks forward to it every week. He has progressed onto Grade 5 and hopes to do all the grades here.”

“I absolutely love my piano lessons with Lauren! They were made even better when I took part in the most recent Christmas showcase where I met other students and teachers. It was such a memorable experience being placed in an adult band and rehearsing together for our showcase! Adam, Lauren (both Laurens and Kat (to name a few teachers) did an AMAZING job organising the showcases and getting is all energised and fully prepared for the show! They really are a credit to Anthem Music School, thank you so much! Xx”

“My 6yo daughter absolutely loves Molly’s classes. She’s learnt dances, poems and has a lot of fun with the games they play. She attended a drama class before, but most definitely prefers Molly’s sessions. Really interactive and has really helped her move and express herself.”

“My granddaughters love this place and have learnt a lot. Great place for kids to dance and have fun. I was lucky to see them perform.”

“One of the most enjoyable bank holiday weekend's I've had for a while. What made it special was the support artist enjoyed their day; not just turned up. Jean, Heather, and the rest of the staff where on hand. Made up a nice table too . Keep on rocking; my day was complete x!”

“I joined SEM on a whim towards the end of 2019 studying music production & composition with zero knowledge nor experience. I started 2021 feeling equipped and skilled enough to write and produce my first album :) This is a really special school that has been a game-changer for me. The facilities are quality and the staff are a bunch of passionate and talented souls who go that extra mile when it comes to nurturing/developing their students. I wasted no time in jumping on the business module course when i had the chance which has been massively helpful in preparing my campaign. It's always a treat to study around like-minded musicians, so it's very easy to fit in and make a home out of the place. I couldn't recommend it enough and i'll be back when i have some spare cash! A.”

“Excellent place to learn guitar my husband has been going January registered blind. Neil has been really patient with him and taught him a step at a time going over anything he doesn't understand and place his fingers correctly.It has brought him more confidence to do something he never thought he would be able to.Well worth the money you pay.”

“Really good bar -tasty cocktails and seriously abides by social distancing rules while providing a brilliant experience for all the people coming to enjoy a drink! Would definitely recommend at the end of a night out xxx”

“Very well organised. Nice and clean. Disabled access was good. Bar drink code was adequate and refreshments were available. Excellent idea of being able to order drinks for the interim period so you could just pick them up. Toilets were superbly clean. Such a grand place to visit and experience.”

“Excellent staff, beer and prices. Visited this at the weekend when Manchester was baking and City was playing their first home game of the season. So was a little worried about what the service would be like. I needn't have worried. Fast friendly service all day. We stopped just for one, but when we got seats and a table in the sun and had our first pint of Jimmy's Cider, one quickly turn into half a dozen! Even though the place was hammered before kick-off time the service was wonderful. I had just had a very bad experience at the Crown and Kettle and boy oh boy they could do with visiting here and seeing what customer service is all about. Will be back again. Thanks all for making our day!”

“NYE celebrations here, ticketed event included entrance, drink on arrival, canapes throughout the night and schnapps at the end. The atmosphere was electric, great energy from performers and entertainers. A very enjoyable night to end the year!”

“Went here for a family meal had a carvery 3 course meal and really enjoyed it absolutely beautiful and will be returning again .”

“Went to watch The Lion King. On the circle in row B. Really great show, it's a must watch. Leg room was tight. I'm 6ft 2 and I would definitely go for a front row seat next time. Easy to get too as the train station is 30 seconds away. Can't fault it.”

“Just returned from a 2 night break and planning when to go again. First time in a wheelchair staff couldnt do enough to help. All staff shared in with a laugh and were so friendly. Room was large and very clean, bar service first class , bar food good value and breakfast so good all hot and fresh with a great choice. Left very happy. aall food was hot and fresh with”

“Visiting from Edinburgh, I decided to try out your club. It wasn’t usually my particular scene, but soo glad I did come in. I enjoyed it so much I returned a second night. I would like to really say that the venue is not only immaculate, the staff were very friendly also. Making us really welcome. I really wanted to mention your door steward. One girl who was on the door that night is an asset to your club. Not only did she keep the club safe, her observation is incredible. She spotted two male individuals that were about to be a serious problem and she spotted it well before it escalated. One particular male was very threatening toward my girlfriend who I was there with. Your steward removed him before it got me into a difficult situation. I understand it’s not easy to stop the problem at the door, but she did an impeccable job. Many thanks for allowing us access and we will re visit again.”

“I have been in the Brewers twice recently. Its very nicely decorated and comfortable inside. The Cocktails are 2 for 1 which is fab. On a nice day you can sit outside and the atmosphere in the village is vibrant and fun.”

“We have lots of Equipment on offer for hire We are the event specialists”

“My daughter has been going to stagecoach for a few months now and already grown in confidence so much. Highly recommend”

“He is very passionate about music and he can give you a strong base in Carnatic music”

“excellent Stage school, the team are fantastic with the kids and the shows are brilliant.”

“My daughter has been learning piano for one and half year，and has been made great progress since she has switched to the Artist school which highly recommended by my friends 6 months ago，and I'm very happy with the results so far - not only her progress but also her confident learning.She has been taught to be attentive to details and persevere in achieving her goals, which is invaluable in the future. She's recently done ABRSM Grade 3 and will certainly continue her music education with the Piano school.”

“So good! I had so much fun and continue to benefit from everything I learned about myself and how to play and connect with others.”

“Very friendly and inspiring school where people of all age and background can thrive and learn how to play musical instruments.”

“My child loves his lessons at little voices, the teachers are very nice . Thank you .”

“Myroslava is a wonderful, reliable, and inspiring teacher. She’s been teaching our teenage daughter for many years now, even through the difficulties of the pandemic via FaceTime, and she has found subtle ways to keep her interested and playing.”

“An excellent opportunity to teach our children their mother tongue and meet new friends.”

“Rock out is fantastic! Been here for a good few years now and my kids hardly ever stick with anything. My 2 boys go here oldest is 13 and has learnt to play electric guitar with rock out and my youngest is 8 and is now learning to play the drums. Mike runs the show and is brill, always runs smoothly and arranges a performance each year which the kids look forward to. The sessions are fab and all the teachers are enthusiastic and great with kids. Glad we found this place and highly recommend it”
