Music Education Partnership Approved

On 5th May 2011- Music Generation, the U2 and Ireland Funds supported National Music Education Programme, announced that Louth, Mayo and Sligo have been selected for participation in the first round of the programme.

Tony Ó Dálaigh, Chairman of Music Generation stated, “These three counties rose straight to the top when an independent panel examined the proposals from around the country..."

This success is going to be of great benefit to young people across the county, enabling Louth MEP to to provide an accessible, county-wide programme of vocal and instrumental tuition for children and young people from pre-school up to 18 years. The funding provided by Music Generation will facilitate the establishment of a comprehensive three year programme encompassing all genres of music including rock, pop, jazz, traditional, classical and music technology.
