My Guitar Lessons Attend The Musicians Union Education Conference

We have just got back from a full on day one spent with the amazing people from the Musicians Union. The event took place at the excellent music learning centre – Resonance Education Centre in Dudley, Birmingham. We attended several of their including South African Gumboot Rhythms hosted by Lucky Moyo where we were shown how to make rhythmic patterns and songs with an African inspired way to play using your gumboots and thigh’s and some dance moves and vocal thrown in. We then on to a Behind the scenes with the National Open Youth Orchestra hosted by Doug Bott and Jamie Moody who talked about a talented group of musicians – some disabled who have pioneered a new experience for young musicians.
