Yamaha's acclaimed conservatoire and specialist music school Scholarship programme will also be covered by the scheme.

Bill Martin Comments "More Music! brings together and showcases the scope, value and reach of our educational work, it is a substantial programme that will extend and expand our commitment in assisting and supporting up-coming new talents and music teachers. Connecting everything together will ensure that we achieve extra impact and increase the overall value of our commitment to more musicians and educators alike."
