Individual and Group Lessons

Music Generation Meath & Julianstown Music Hub

Learning to play a musical instrument can be more of a daunting task than a child may expect. Fingers, tongue, breathing, posture, note reading, and counting all come into play when a child is learning an instrument. For a parent, it is sometimes difficult to find a teacher for a particular instrument.

A wide range of Orchestral Instruments (listed below) are available on a loan basis.


Julianstown Youth Orchestra are delighted to be partnering with Music Generation Meath (MGM) who are providing instrumental tuition at Julianstown Music Hub starting in January 2022. Tuition will take place in line with public health guidelines and students will updated with further details closer to the commencement of classes. Julianstown Music Hub is located at Colaiste na hInse, Bettystown, Co. Meath.

Lessons are fully coordinated by MGM. For information on lessons, please contact MGM at MGMJulianstownhub@lmetb.ie
