Starling Sessions is Oxford's global folk community orchestra, exploring the global traditional music of the city's citizens. We believe in building connection and understanding through music-making. The sessions give space for group members to bring songs from their musical tradition to share, and we work together on arrangements and perform locally. Whatever your instrument, level, age, wherever you're from, you're welcome at Starlings! We meet on Thursday evenings, 7.30-9.30pm, at the Old Fire Station on George St. For more info on rehearsals and events, see our website: musicintandem.org Starling Sessions is a project of Tandem Collective.

We believe money should not be a barrier to making music, and bringing money into the music-making spoils the fun. We want to keep Starling Sessions completely free at the point of access. If you love what we do, you can support our work! Set up a regular donation to help keep us going, or give a one-off donation towards the project. You can choose to donate any amount, so give what works for your budget! A monthly donation of anything from £5 to £50 (or more!) would help us keep activities running, and the more we raise the more we can offer to Oxford's communities. Regular donations help us more, as a predictable income helps us to plan ahead, knowing what we can afford. It costs £15,000 to keep the Starling Sessions running for 1 year including hiring venues, providing refreshments, making sure our facilitators receive a fair wage, and having an access budget available for those who need it. With up to £30,000 per year we could also invest in training and building our community to get more people making music together. Every penny donated will go straight back into delivering more sessions and allowing more people to make more music.
