LEH’s Music Department buzzes with energy, from our 21 orchestras, ensembles and jazz bands to our six choirs and rock groups and dazzling concerts. Musicians of all levels thrive here. We run a full programme of ABRSM preparation, and through our Friday Live! lunchtime events we give budding performers the opportunity to share their talents with the rest of the school.
Our state-of-the-art facilities include practice rooms, a Steinway Concert Grand piano, and a cutting-edge recording studio. From classical masterpieces to musical theatre hits, LEH’s music scene is vibrant and diverse.
Individual lessons cover a wide range of instruments – from flute to guitar, percussion to singing – inspiring every student to find their sound. We are also keen to explore any instrument that a pupil may wish to learn.
Senior School Curriculum
Music is a universal language that connects cultures and reflects the human experience, and its study nurtures creativity, emotional intelligence, and empathy. At LEH, all pupils study music in Years 7 and 8, with the option to continue in Year 9, GCSE, and A Level, where it remains a popular choice. Across all stages, our curriculum is built on the three pillars of performing, composing, and appraising/listening across a range of styles, allowing pupils to develop confidence, teamwork, and a critical engagement with music as both an academic and creative discipline.
