LSO DISCOVERY CPD FOR PRIMARY TEACHERS
Creative Days
COST £75 per staff member, per day
LSO Discovery’s day-long workshops at LSO St Luke’s aim to build confidence and skills in primary school teachers and other staff teaching music in using a creative and hands-on approach to western classical music with classes. Led by LSO Animateur Rachel Leach and LSO musicians, the days are designed for those with some existing musical experience, taking different approaches to class composition, using western classical music as a stimulus.
Each Creative Day will leave you with ideas you can immediately try out in class, after which you will attend a follow-up session to share your experiences with fellow teachers and discuss solutions to problems with Rachel Leach before attending an LSO evening concert.
All Creative Days take place 10am-3pm at LSO St Luke’s, 161 Old Street, London, EC1V 9NG.
All Follow-Up sessions take place 6.30-7.15pm, followed by an LSO concert at 7.30pm at the Barbican Centre, Silk Street, London, EC2Y 8DS.

BBC PROMS YOUTH CHOIR ACADEMY
The BBC Proms team is launching a new strand of vocal learning work for the BBC Proms 2017 and is inviting applications from young people aged 16-21 based in London and the South East.
The newly launched BBC Proms Youth Choir Academy aims to find undiscovered voices from all musical backgrounds and develop them in a choral setting. The Academy offers young singers the chance to develop their voice, explore classical choral singing and technique and work alongside professional classical singers.
Applications are being encouraged from young people who may have little or no musical experience, but who have raw talent and lots of enthusiasm. Applicants do not need to be able to read music, but they should have a good musical ear. They must also have a love of singing and a voice with potential, even if untrained and undeveloped. They must be committed to the project and be able to attend all Academy sessions. It is entirely free to participate in this project and financial support will be provided wherever necessary.
Workshops will run from January - July 2017 twice a month. The project will culminate in a performance on the First Night of the BBC Proms 2017.
Please note that an informal workshop selection day will take place on Saturday 3 December.
