Playground Orchestra
8 07 2006St Thomas and St Anne CE Primary School in Hanwood, south of Shrewsbury, had an official opening of the new playground musical instruments that have been purchased by the PTA to add to the facilities for children at break-time.
The magnificent set of well-tuned instruments explores a wide range of materials, and therefore musical timbres, and is already being used by children fro leisure time improvisation.
At the launch Alan Atkin of The Shropshire Music Service and I presented a musical composition we had created with a group of children using the instruments with the addition of vocal and djembe sections. The response from the children has been fantastic - if you live locally, why not contact the school and take a look? The school contact details are below.
