Save Fife Music

"I wholeheartedly support this. The Council have completely missed the point by deciding that music is a luxury Fife can do without. I also agree that music is being marginalised when we see nowhere near the level of cuts in other areas."

"As afamily we have been extremely pleased and thankfull to see the progress made by our grandchildren, one of whom has special needs.Surely the cuts will have a distrastrous effect on the future of music in Fife.Please think again!"

"Think of the future. By cutting the budget now you are in effect sealing the fate of hundreds of musicians never becoming musicians."

"Please, please don't cut the valuable music propgram."

"Music education is so important to learn for life!"

"Total lack of ubderstanding about the benefits of music in education. It is for life !"

"My child is currently enjoying trumpet tuition at school. It has given her a huge confidence boost, which carries over into other areas of her schoolwork."

"I have two children who have benefited greatly from music provision in Fife and believe that we should not prevent younger children from benefiting from this valuable opportunity."

"So that childern in years to come can continue to benifit from the exceptional opertunities on offer in Fife's music activities like I am currently enjoying"

"Music tuition did so much for my kids - they play in orchestras, music groups as well as for personal pleasure. That would never have happened if they had not had tuition."

"These are short-term cuts which will have long-term effects on the future cultural life of Fife."

"my daughter has benefitted greatly from the hard work and expertise of her instructor.This is very shortsighted and detrimental to our children's future"

"Fife Council used to be one of the most enlightened local authorities in encouraging and safeguarding the arts, music included. Now it plans to destroy what took years to create."
