Madeline Cordes is founder of Maddie4Music, and in this episode she shares her journey from a corporate career to building a thriving music business alongside it, driven by a desire to give people access to music they may never have had.
From community choirs and adult learners to care homes, dementia support, and rehabilitation settings, Maddie4Music is about far more than learning to sing...it’s about wellbeing, belonging, and finding your voice.
We talk about the power of a singing community, and the hope that being within that community can give.
Maddie4Music is a music education business set up in 2010 in East Kent and led by Maddie Cordes, offering community choirs, wellbeing singing workshops, lessons in piano, singing and violin for adults and young people and entertainment in care homes and day centres.
Maddie is passionate about sharing her expertise in the community to help develop confidence and skills through music making. Maddie4 Music was awarded a community award by Deal Town Council and highly commended by mental health charity MIND. The business has also been nominated in the 2025 Kent Dementia Awards for its creative local initiatives.
