Beauchamp House International
Music and Drama Courses 2008

Beauchamp House music and drama courses and summer music school have now been running successfully for 23 years Beauchamp House Courses and we very much look forward to welcoming both old friends and new students again in 2008.  

We believe that our combination of high quality teaching, friendly atmosphere where young people can make friends with other young musicians across the country and from Europe and camping in the Gloucestershire country-side is unique.  It's what makes our students return year after year!
