Announcing a new partnership for music education

Music Education Solutions and UCan Play are delighted to announce their new partnership. Through this initiative, music education specialists from both organisations will provide bespoke advice and support for teachers wanting to purchase musical instruments for their schools.

UCan Play was set up in 2005 by Dr Jonathan Savage. It is a not-for-profit organisation supporting music education in various ways throughout the UK. The sale of musical instruments to schools, colleges and universities is part of its work, but there are plenty of others too. UCan Play assists schools with fundraising for music education programmes, and works collaboratively with leading charities such as Restore the Music UK to make funding available to schools in support of their musical activities, and to ensure that this funding is spent wisely.

UCan Play are also experienced at live-streaming music events, and are the technical partner for NYMAZ’s Connect Resound project, streaming live music lessons and performances to schools in remote parts of England and beyond. Using their technical expertise, they also work with musicians across the UK to support the development of their digital skills and competences through their Interface:Response project, which is accepting applications for support until the end of March 2021.

Both Music Education Solutions and UCan Play believe that working together in support of music education is better than working independently. By pooling their expertise and resources, they hope to continue to provide excellent advice and support to all teachers across the UK at this challenging time. They are here to help in any way that they can.
