Gore & Grimes Solicitors LLP has announced a three year sponsorship of Play it Forward. Expanding Music Access, an initiative at the Royal Irish Academy of Music that provides young people with free instrumental tuition and access to musical instruments.
Through the programme, twenty six students aged between nine and fourteen will receive full three year scholarships through RIAM’s Junior Academy, giving them the opportunity to develop their musical ability in one of Ireland’s leading music institutions.
Liam Collins, Partner at Gore & Grimes Solicitors LLP, said the firm is proud to support an initiative that creates opportunities for young musicians “Music has the ability to build confidence and creativity in young people,” he said. “Play it Forward ensures that talented students have the opportunity to develop their abilities, and we are delighted to support the Royal Irish Academy of Music in helping the next generation of musicians.”
Deborah Kelleher, Director of the Royal Irish Academy of Music, welcomed the support. “Play it Forward helps ensure that talented young musicians have the opportunity to develop their abilities regardless of background. We are very grateful to Gore & Grimes for supporting this initiative.”
Further details about the initiative are available on the Royal Irish Academy of Music website.
