This course provides the opportunity for participants to work individually and collaboratively to develop their song writing skills under the guidance of song writing experts.

The focus is on how contemporary and modern songs are structured and put together and what makes them successful.

Support and advice will be given to help understand lyric writing and arrangement techniques; this will incorporate “live” instruments giving course members the freedom to experiment with different musical textures and voicings.

The course will end with a performance for family and friends on Friday 24 July.

All of our staff who work with children and young people have a current enhanced disclosure through the Disclosure & Barring Service and we run a programme of regular child protection training for our teachers.

Our son had a wonderful time and can’t wait to come back next year.
