Rhythm partners





In Kauri team we have been getting 'hands-on' with a variety of instruments in ' rotations'. At each 'station' there is a series of tasks to help develop confidence and creativity with the instruments. Here's a clip of what Kamahl and Jordan put together after just a few minutes working together with boomwhackers. Later on, they were able to transfer the same patterns to a marimba.

A taste of Telemann


Over the past couple of days some classes have had the privilege of hearing some 18th century flute music played by volunteer Lily. Lily has been learning the flute for about ten years, and when she gets back to England she will be furthering her music studies at University.
Here's a little clip of Lily playing an excerpt from Fantasia in A minor  by Georg Philipp Telemann(1681-1767)
