‘We’ll have people aged six to 83 for one-to-one and group lessons. We teach guitar, bass, ukulele, piano, drums, and love to get people playing music together.
‘If someone wants to try lessons but is unsure, this event is good way for them to take part with no financial commitment.’
Portsmouth’s Learn to Play Day event is being held today and tomorrow at PMT, 12 Fitzherbert Spur. Free tuition includes one-to-one sessions from 10am-5pm, while group sessions will be available from 4pm-5pm.
