The Peterborough Centre for Young Musicians (PCYM) is an exciting venture for the region’s talented young musicians aged between 5-18 years.
Professional ensemble tuition is offered in association with the prestigious Guildhall School of Music & Drama. The Centre provides a comprehensive package of training, developing key skills in regular practice, instrumental and vocal technique, musical analysis and performance.
PCYM delivers a high quality centre of excellence, making Peterborough the regional destination for music tuition and performance skills.
