All of these workshops can be bespoke to your school and be adapted to fit the needs of your pupils, More Music will consult with you once you have made your choice from their offers.

Participatory music making

This can involve a musician performing or creating songs with pupils that they can join in with vocally and/or with simple instruments such as percussion, plus music-based games/activities to promote engagement and communication. Suitable for groups with a wide range of needs.

Beatboxing and Rap

Learn the techniques for creating beats with just your voice and a microphone, these sessions can particularly engage teenage boys who are reluctant to be involved in vocal work.  The session can also include writing lyrics, which helps develop literacy and links to poetic and linguistic devices.

 

 

Spring into Samba

Samba Drumming

We draw on over 20 years’ experience of performing and teaching Samba music, and use traditional Brazilian teaching techniques; vocalising then beating the rhythms.  We can bring a whole array of kit, such as drums, bells and shakers so everyone can be involved.

West African Drumming

A fun, simple and inclusive drumming workshop, we use authentic djembes (made from wood and goatskin).  They are hand percussion instruments so no sticks are required and work well with call and response group exercises.

Songwriting

These workshops are great for developing language, creativity and self-expression.  It can link with any thematic or curriculum area of your choice, utilising different musical genres, music tech and styles to make something new.

The incredible Broadfield Specialist school show the impact and reach of using Ableton Push 2 and Live in their curriculum and setting. In this short video, teachers Danny and Ste offer insights into how this amazing equipment has changed their music curriculum, offer some tips and we see Ableton and Push 2 in action.

Lancashire Music Service is proud to have an innovative partnership with Ableton, enabling us to provide Secondary, Specialist Schools and PRUs with Ableton Push 2 and Live Licences at no cost to schools. This enables music technology to be a core part of any music curriculum removing barriers and improving acess for young people across the county.
