Music Lessons for Primary Schools
Our music lessons for primary schools keep us extremely busy throughout the year! Unfortunately, in this current climate, we’ve all had to adapt to big changes over the last few weeks! This means that our music lessons for primary schools have unfortunately been interrupted due to these changes. With primary, secondary and music schools closed indefinitely, music lessons for primary schools nationwide have unfortunately come to a halt. However, the good news is, we’ve been planning our music lessons and programmes for next year, and are really looking forward to coming back with a bang! Today, we’re going to be explaining our Let’s Drum classroom programme- what it is, what it involves, and why you might be interested! Read on to learn more.
Let’s Drum
This percussion-based course explores the role of percussion in music from all corners of the world. Each class also investigates the importance of ‘the beat’. This course firstly develops each child’s rhythmical abilities, secondly, teaches students how to read and create music notation and thirdly, gives each student the opportunity to perform each week as part of a classroom percussion ensemble. These interactive and energy-filled classes culminate in an end of programme classroom performance of the performance pieces learned during the course. Our drumming workshops remain one of our most popular type of music classes we offer at primary schools and are sure to be a hit with the students.
