Sound Connections’ sixth annual London Early Years Music Network conference is returning to the heart of our work – music.

The LEYMN community is united through a belief in the power of music but the opportunity to discuss the repertoire we use and how it can impact on children is rare.

In the conference LEYMN shall explore how music is used in early years activities, environments and experiences.

• Are we making best use of the resources available?
• Should we take more risks with our musical choices?
• What can we learn from other art-forms?
• Is the music we use the best it can be?
• Where do you begin when composing for young children?
• How do we celebrate the diversity of audiences through music?

This one-day conference is held in the beautiful Royal Albert Hall and will provide a rich day of presentations, case studies, discussions and practical sessions. By coming together we will celebrate good practice and identify where more work is needed and what our network can achieve together. This is why this conference has a timetable with everyone in mind; from practitioners to project deliverers, cultural organisations to classroom teachers, composers to setting managers.

Delegates will feel inspired to embed music into the heart of their practice to enable every child to have a musical childhood.
