Just spent the afternoon with 60 teachers. They have a kit of 45 djembes to share around their schools and needed input on what to do with them.   more »

Vanessa Thomas, a super excited music teacher greeted me with an equally excited team of Year 5's to carry and set up instruments in their small hall.
Two groups from  Year 3 and Year 5.  Year 5's  wanted to add inspiration and ideas to their African music module which would contribute to a future whole school performance,  while the younger Year 3's wanted ideas and experience for their imminent participation in a Brighton childrens samba workshop.
As well as experiencing different instruments in the percussion orchestra children had opportunities to lead and conduct and input rhythmic ideas.  We also added in DrumCrazy simple call and answer songs. 
It felt like there was a lot of excitement with all the children and that by the end of the day they experienced some great music when they were committed to working together, responding to each other  rather than as individuals trying to make the loudest noise.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely day with sunshine shared by all.
