The critically acclaimed Montgomery Holloway Music Trust was founded in 1996 by the late great Jazz singer, Marion Montgomery and her husband, the renowned pianist, composer and arranger Laurie Holloway. The Trust provides talented musicians (both vocalists and instrumentalists) with a variety of opportunities to develop their skills through a series of creative and inspiring experiences including workshops with professional musicians, stagecraft and performance techniques. 


Each year the Trust offers an advanced performance course, known as the summer school. The week long course takes place in Maidenhead, Berkshire and allows a small number of pupils to work closely with top British Jazz artists. Aimed at both instrumentalists and singers, the summer school is an intense week of seminars, rehearsals, performance classes and guest appearances. To showcase the skills learned during the week, a concert at Norden Farm Centre of Arts closes the course. Available places on summer school are quickly booked up, so to find out more or apply please click on the Summer School tab.
