If music be…..

I was privileged enough today to observe a music session with some Intermediate students. I call it a ‘session’ because it felt more like a session than a lesson, with students recording tracks, dubbing, mixing, jamming and rehearsing and not necessarily in this order.

The end product apparently is still 2 weeks away. They will be recording their own version of ‘Hotel California’ or some such.

The teacher was clearly a talented musician, but then so were many in his class- Vocalists, bass players, guitars, drums to name a few.

I can’t believe he handpicked his class and pulled out all the ‘budding musicians’ from the year group. This is much more a powerful demonstration of the passion of a teacher impacting on and inspiring his students.
