The taster event will run from 4.30pm to 6.30pm in Muchos Nachos in Whyke Road, Chichester, formerly known as the Crown Inn.
Sarah Sharp, member of the Steering Group of the Crown Community Pub Hub, said: “We are delighted to see the pub hosting this event.
“There is a strong tradition of music at the pub, as the Chichester City Band (formerly Chichester Brass Band South Ward) was founded in the Crown in 1898 and used the upstairs as their band room.

“We have for many months enjoyed regular performances from the Backroom Group which features young performers linked to the Chichester Music Academy, and this is now going to be complemented by the University’s amazing new course. I am looking forward to this immensely.”
