The children at Southern Road had been working on a choreographed dance for a scene onboard the slave ship.
After some body percussion warm-up games, the children took part in drama to brainstorm some word phrases that they could use to turn into musical phrases. They then developed these in groups, transferring their spoken phrases onto a variety of percussion instruments. They also learnt about the names and techniques used to play classroom percussion. At the end of the session, each group performed their piece, using my djembe pulse to link each group. They hope to develop their group piece and perform it live.
