Projects
September 2010 – March 2011
Group AAfter a hugely successful pilot year beginning in September 2009, Group A will continue with various activities throughout summer and begin its second year of creativity in September 2010.
Over two terms, a group of 30 young people from the local area will meet regularly to create and perform their own musical piece.
The project is largely based around the voice, and participants are encouraged to leave their existing musical knowledge ‘at the door’, to enable them to be open to all aspects of the arts, including dance, technology, design and dance.

Workforce DevelopmentNow in its eighth year, our workforce development strand is looking to develop from a two-week opportunity to a more in-depth experiential process for outstanding musicians who want to develop their skills working in participatory settings.
Over the last two years we have worked together with The Irene Taylor Trust/Music in Prisons and focused on working within the criminal justice system. We will develop this partnership in 2009 into a more intensive programme of musical training, specific environment preparation, security awareness and experiential opportunities through a number of projects.
