Recently we were lucky guests at the BBC Philharmonic Ten Pieces Concert at Media City, Salford 🙌 A fantastic afternoon for the launch of the new BBC 10 Pieces where we were treated to performances by the BBC Philharmonic and students from Chetham's School of Music. For those that don’t know, the BBC Ten Pieces opens up the world of classical music to 7-14 year olds. Working with the BBC, we created inclusive resources for our MIDI device CMPSR (kom-poh-zah) and Arrownotes accessible notation to support more young people and teachers to explore classical music. This year is very special because BBC Ten Pieces marks its tenth anniversary with a new collection of works by women composers, and a specific focus on inclusion to open up the world of classical music to students who may have been shut out by traditional approaches. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be digging into exactly what the BBC 10 Pieces is, and what we’ve been up to with the BBC.

We had a fantastic time supporting pBone Music on their Special Education training day for Berkshire Music Trust ! Brilliant to see CMPSR & Arrownotes find a home in their instrument library. Under the watchful eye of Quiz 🐕, we explored how CMPSR, Swipe, and Arrownotes can help meet their inclusion goals across the region to provide music activities and education for students who can't play traditional instruments. If you’re looking to bring modern, meaningful music-making to more young people, reach out to Jonty Hines from pBone Music, or get in touch with us directly!

We're excited to announce the start of a 10-week Whole Class Instrumental Teaching project at North Worcester Primary Academy with support from Severn Arts. By combining gaming and music, this 10-lesson Scheme of Work engages students through modern genres while building key musical skills like playing instruments individually and in groups, creating music, listening attentively, and understanding musical notation. Lauren, teacher at North Worcester Primary Academy, shared: “I’m really excited about using this in class. The programme is engaging and accessible for everyone, and even as a non-specialist, the planning makes me confident in delivering it. I know the kids will love it!"
