Calling all teachers and home educators!
We’re celebrating 10 years of Ten Pieces, the BBC’s music education programme for 7 - 14-year-olds, with a concert at Factory International. This years’ line-up features music from female composers and the live show will be accompanied by classroom resources that will help students explore music, creativity and other cross curricular themes.
You’ll hear
Grasswalk by Laura Shigihara from the computer game Plants vs Zombies. Demonstrating that classical music is all around us and as relevant as ever.
And, Montgomery Variations. Margaret Bonds was a performer, composer and civil rights activist who worked from the 1930s - 1960. This piece tells the story of what it means to stand up for your beliefs.
You’ll meet
Award Winning YolanDa Brown, saxophonist and broadcaster and a familiar face on CBeebies.
The concert is on Wednesday 9 October, 11am and 1.30pm and all tickets are £5. We’d love to see you there.
