Dig Deep participants Fina, Casey, Carl and Lina performed a fantastic opening set for Elf Tranzporter last Thursday at Newtown Workers Club in Fitzroy. Great to see other members of the crew getting up for the open mic session. It was great to see folks performing onstage and hear their beats through a big sound system. Check this gig out, it runs every Thursday night for the rest of June. Props to Cat and Grace from Multicultural Arts Victoria for organizing this night. The RocKwiz crew were in the Sidney Myer Music Bowl today for the first show of RocKwiz Schools at the Bowl. Charismatic host extraordinaire Brian Nankervis was awesome with the girls from Camberwell Girls Grammar School. There was a plethora of students that wanted to jam with the RocKwiz Orchestra and the four singers that performed the Youth Group classic ‘Forever Young’ did a mighty job. The event is on for another three days, we will have some photos up as soon as we have permission from the schools involved, so stay tuned… One of the projects Youth Ed is putting on this year called Wayfarer has morphed from a player/runner based scenario to a task based real world activity designed to promote social, political and environmental awareness. The Wayfarer project is created by media artists Kate Richards and Martyn Coutts, check out Wayfarer version one here. I am catching up with Martyn today to drink coffee and get an update of how this exciting project is developing. In the meantime, treat yourself to Martyn’s Brooke Solo… Welcome to the Youth and Education Music blog for my job at the Arts Centre, Melbourne. This page will keep you updated with the development of the youth projects I am working on at the moment. Make sure you check out the links to dig deep to hear some of outcomes of this fantastic music mentoring project which I run out of the Alfred Brash SoundHouse every Tuesday night. |
