 The OHMI Trust is marking its 15th year with a celebratory anniversary concert taking place on Saturday, 12th September 2026 at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. The milestone event will bring together distinguished guests, supporters, artists, and friends to celebrate OHMI’s fifteen years of advancing inclusivity and excellence in music-making.
Musical instruments adapted for one-handed playing are notoriously more expensive to design and produce than their conventional counterparts. A hand-crafted, one-handed clarinet, for example, typically costs around £6,000. OHMI’s anniversary concert presents an opportunity to showcase the art of the possible through a vibrant mix of repertoire and styles performed by OHMI Music-Makers of all ages, using adapted instruments alongside RBC students and alumni. Emma Brown, a postgraduate research student at RBC and trustee of The OHMI Trust, said: “What better way to reflect OHMI’s unwavering belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to play, create and perform music to the highest level than by holding a concert at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire! We’re thrilled to have the support of RBC who are as passionate as we are about inclusion, excellence and future-facing musical practice. I’ll be playing on the night alongside the OHMI Music-Makers to celebrate the musical achievements of some of the individuals who have been supported by OHMI over the years, as well as to raise awareness of the adapted instruments and enabling equipment on offer from the OHMI Instrument Hire Scheme.” The concert is one of OHMI’s ‘15 for 15’ fundraising events where concert and ensemble performers are invited to support and raise awareness of OHMI’s valuable work through their own events. Tickets for OHMI’s 15th anniversary celebration concert can be booked on the RBC website. Comments are closed.
