Our 360° Music PPA Cover
Our unique programme of study uses instruments as the loom through which we weave the strands of listening, theory, musicianship and composition to create a rich tapestry of musical knowledge and appreciation within your school's young minds
Every Class is an Ensemble
Our instrument-based delivery transforms every class into an exciting, collaborative ensemble. This not only gives pupils vast and valuable practical experience but increased social cohesion and teamwork skills.
Keys, Strings, Percussion
& Wind
We cycle keyboards, ukuleles, tongue drums and pBuzzs to give pupil's a comprehensive understanding of the multiple methods of acoustic sound production. We teach the techniques of 'spider-hands', finger independence, embouchure, buzzing, mallet grip & roll, fretting, strumming and plucking!
Explore a World of Music
The music of cultures from all over the world is explored and digested, promoting pupils's growth into global citizens. The Indonesian Gamelan, the brass bands of the Balkans, the classical music of India, the syncopated groove of Jamaican Reggae and many more styles and genres are traversed. We even have authentic instruments to bring music from thousands of miles away to vivid life inside your classrooms.
Compose New Music
The act of creating new music puts all the technique, listening, musicianship and theory skills to work alongside those in teamwork and collaboration. We love to take a cause, goal or event close to your school and compose a song with your pupils to aid, promote or raise awareness. Your pupils' realisation that their endeavour, creativity and togetherness can positively impact their environment is a formative one.
Read and Write Notation
From the very beginning of a pupil's musical education with us we use notation symbiotically with our ensemble work. It becomes second nature for pupils to count the values of notes and act accordingly to an array of musical symbols whilst playing an instrument.
Earn a Music Qualification
Pupils can sit an externally accredited ensemble performance exam, showcasing their work and learnt skills to earn one of their first music qualifications of potentially many more!
Cross-Curricular Topic-Tag
The Romans, the Industrial Revolution, the Ancient Greeks, World Wars I & 2 and the Stone Age are just a few of the vast array of topics covered in our exclusive Topic Song Library. We also love to journey through history with pupils' musical participation. We see and hear the instruments of the past, discover the social contexts of music-making, perform and compose in the style and uncover fascinating facts about the music from long, or not so long, ago!
Hear what our ensemble music sounds like:
Pupils are immersed in backing tracks that feature musical elements relating to their learning.
By interacting with these whilst performing on an instrument, pupils are digesting them on a deeper level.
As pupils develop their musical abilities, more elements of the backing tracks can be put into their hands
