Music
Year 7 & 8 have been working on their Minimalism compositions which are from the 20th Century era of Classical music. They have been using the key elements of Minimalism to add to their compositions. Please go and listen to their compositions, they are fantastic and very relaxing!
Year 5’s have been fusing two different genres of music together this week. Their topic this term is African drumming and they have recorded and created music from this genre. This week’s task was to create fusion music where two types of music come together to make a piece. They fused pop music and African music together. Please do listen to the compositions, they are brilliant.
Josh and Bella in Pre Prep have been enjoying their music lesson this week! They have been learning all about body percussion, and it seems like they had a fantastic time doing it! Please watch the video.
The music department has some very exciting new additions ready for the summer term! The department has 12 new Tabla drums, these are Indian drums that can play lots of different timbres of sounds. Some very lucky pupils will be playing them for the first time in a few weeks! Thank you to the Friends of Edge Grove for investing in them!
