About
Who we are
Drake Music is a national arts charity working across the UK with our Head Office in London. We are a National Portfolio Organisation for Arts Council England and are also funded through Youth Music.
We have been pioneering the use of accessible music technology for over 20 years. This enables more people to make music.
In that time, we have developed lots of imaginative methods of teaching, learning, writing and playing music.
We are specialists in using technology to break down disabling barriers to making music.
What we do
Central to our work is the belief that everyone can fulfil their creative and musical potential, given the right opportunities.
We are a Disabled-led organisation and work with Disabled people of all ages, from school children having their first instrumental lessons to professional Disabled musicians.
We work where music, disability and technology meet to:
- Create opportunities and instruments that make music fully accessible
- Get more people involved in music-making at all levels
- Build an integrated musical culture where Disabled and non-disabled musicians work together as equals
Our skilled team has an excellent track record of developing and delivering outreach, training, artistic development and education initiatives for Disabled musicians of all ages and in all genres.
We research and develop new accessible musical instruments and technologies to create more ways to make music.
Our artistic development programme supports Disabled musicians to progress their work and we offer training and consultancy for teachers, music hubs and other organisations.
