On Thursday 6th November, Year 10 GCSE Musicians travelled to ELAM to collaborate with other Ark GCSE Musicians on performance repertoire for the course and hear from industry professionals about their journey into professional music making as a career choice. Some comments from the students below:
‘The mashup of Believer and I’m a believer was challenging but it was a great experience to collaborate with everyone.’
‘I enjoyed playing in the house band with new musicians from across year 10.’
‘I enjoyed hearing from other professional musicians and being in a purely year 10 environment. It was great to see ELAM as well and know what further education music colleges exist. The repertoire we learned was fun and it was great to hear what everyone had prepared during the day with the massed performance at the end’.
