Our Story

Vamoosh Music was first created by Thomas Gregory in 2009. With input from a wealth of highly experienced colleagues, Vamoosh sought to meet a demand for accessible and practical material for use in group lessons. New pieces were trialed by ruthless and honest critics, resulting in a thoughtful and detailed curriculum.

"Through his Vamoosh music books, Thomas has made an immeasurable contribution to the development of young string players."

Gareth Malone

Vamoosh offers an innovative and creative approach that aims to develop not just good instrumentalists, but independent, expressive and creative musicians. The emphasis on music as a group activity, helps to nurture note-reading, listening and improvisation skills, making the musical journey enjoyable for both teacher and student alike. The wide selection of varied and motivating pieces cunningly guide the player through a series of simple steps, helping to form the foundations of a strong technique with love and attention to detail. 

The characterful backing-tracks provide a musical, as well as rhythmical context to support practice at home, helping parents with no musical background support their child's development. 

Many pieces appear on exam syllabi including ABRSM, Trinity, London College and Rock School.

Vamoosh Books are distributed worldwide exclusively by Hal Leonard Europe.
