        <description><![CDATA[Delia Derbyshire was amazing, she changed how sounds were recorded and used with her Dr Who theme. Using her question &#39;What if....&#39; and thinking about how other composers have described space, Y5 have created their own compositions. Using garageband for the first time means they have learnt lots of new skills as well as exploring samples, clusters and arrays. Have a listen to some of these creative explorations all about space!]]></description>

        <title>A cappella timeline</title>
        <description><![CDATA[This half term our listening curriculum has been all about a cappella music. Starting with Gregorian chants in medieval times, children have spent a week listening to a cappella music as it changed through time. This included gospel music in the 1800s, Barbershop Quartets in the 1930s to Doo-wap in the 1940s. Now we&#39;ve reached groups listened to today, the children are enjoying Pentatonix and are amazed that all these pieces are performed with no musical accompaniment!]]></description>

We&#39;ve had rap battles with rhyming words and had a go at writing our own raps too!]]></description>

        <title>Amazing Violinists!</title>
        <description><![CDATA[Foxes Class had their final violin lesson today.  Across the six weeks it has been fantastic to watch how the children have progressed so quickly from plucking on the violin to holding it correctly, using different bowing styles and moving onto using their fingers to change the pitch on strings.  In their final lesson Mrs Porter gave the challenge using their knowledge of pitch to copy and respond to call and response questions as well as &#39;finding the melody&#39; to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.  They performed all their pieces in a mini concert.  Have a listen to the sound files of each piece! ]]></description>

        <title>Y3 Benjamin Britten - Storm</title>
        <description><![CDATA[As part of our Mayflower 400 project Y3 have been listening to &#39;The Storm&#39; by Benjamin Britten.  We heard the pirates and sea monsters in the music and how calm it became when the sun came up.  We used the main theme as our chorus for our music and then composed our own parts.  Have a listen to our final version!  ]]></description>

        <title>In2music concert</title>
        <description><![CDATA[Wow!  What a morning!!!  The hall was buzzing this morning with excitement and music; Y4 and the Y5/6 orchestra sounded fantastic.  It was wonderful to hear the progress that the children have made so far on their instruments and to hear them playing so confidently together as an ensemble.  Thank you so much to all the parents who were able to join us - it was great to see so many of you.  We were so proud of our orchestra in their first performance.  Thank you for all the support at home encouraging your child to play and reminding them to bring their instrument back every Wednesday.]]></description>

        <title>Young Voices 2020 at the O2 Arena, London</title>
        <description><![CDATA[We had the most AMAZING day at the O2.  The children sang their hearts out and danced their way through the day - they were simply brilliant.  There was a lot of excitement on the coach when we got our first peak of the O2 Arena.  We had lunch when we arrived before taking our seats ready to perform.   Our choir were so lucky that we had seats directly behind the stage and could see the band members playing.  Throughout the afternoon David Lawrence, the conductor, rehearsed each song with us.  We were really excited meeting Ruti (winner of The Voice) who wrote a song specifically for us to sing with her.  The Shires were amazing live and Tony Hadley arrived on stage singing &#39;Gold&#39;!  An absolute highlight was meeting Andy Instone and dancing with Urban Strides ourselves.  After a looooong rehearsal we finally made it to our tea break to get ourselves re-energised ready for the concert.]]></description>
