Activity Overview
Designed for young people in year 5 and above, this course offers young musicians an early opportunity to come together to create a band and work towards a short performance of their work to on the last day. Any instrument is welcome, from beginner to Grade 2.
Students will receive expert coaching from teachers with professional experience, performing live and in the studio.
Day 1 - Students will jam together and get to know each other before forming into bands. They will then go into a practice room with their band and with the help and support of the tutors, they will write and compose their own songs.
Day 2 - Students will practice performing their songs in the studio, before playing in the concert at 2.45pm.
The Rock & Pop courses are popular, and applicants will be placed on a waiting list until there are enough students signed up to create a band, at which time, those students will be moved on to the course and parents/carers contacted to confirm their place. Lists will be monitored regularly and students added each time a new band is viable. So, it is advisable to apply straight away to ensure a place.
If your child plays more than one instrument and would be happy to play either, please do let us know as this helps with planning.
