Beat Four Four was founded in March 2007 to provide quality music teaching and performance opportunities for people of all ages and standards. Since the company was formed, we have founded The East Bristol Chorus, The East Bristol Youth Chorus, The Tor Voices, The Henley Show Chorus and The Black And Red Cabaret..

It is the belief of Beat Four Four that singing and music making are an integral part of our existence and that as well as gaining confidence and satisfaction from creating music, it should above all be fun. For that reason, all of the Beat Four Four activities are available to everyone irrespective of ability and always with absolutely no auditions.

As well as music groups, Beat Four Four also provides quality and professional vocal, piano, theory, singing and composition teaching. Students are of all ages and come from wide backgrounds. Many students have lessons just for fun, but many have also made it in to the West End, Television and Film.

Beat Four Four is always looking for new opportunities to help people come together through music. If you know of a group society or club that you think may be able to use our services please do not hesitate to pass on our details or contact Mark on 07925 882 862 or email info@beatfourfour.co.uk
