We have been working with the students at Toynbee School delivering music sessions along with Jim Chorley, as part of our Inclusive Music Project, supported by Music Fusion, and funded by Hampshire Music Education Hub. The group wrote lyrics, composed and recorded their own tracks over the duration of the project, and we are looking forward to working with the school again in the future.

The GMV Music group had a great session with year 2 Music Technology students from Portsmouth College. They organised and facilitated an inclusive music workshop, as part of their course, at the Charles Dickens Centre, Lake Road Portsmouth. All members of the GMV group contributed to the recording session in some way, creating/using original material. They all had fun today.

The GMV Music group continued developing their song today. They have added more instruments, vocal harmonies, and percussion. It was a really productive afternoon, enjoyed by all.
We facilitated an introductory Music Technology and songwriting workshop for Losing My Sight UK in Basingstoke. With support from Jim Chorley, the group started writing a song, and also explored using real and virtual instruments and recording with David Shervill. The group recorded a rough demo version of the song.
