Programme

You’ll be guided through Figurenotes, from how it works, to its many applications. Each session has a clear focus:

Rhythm

All musicians need to develop a solid sense of pulse. Figurenotes notation shows rhythm in a very logical way, which then transitions easily to standard notation. Explore engaging activities to make rhythm fun!

Creative Composition

Explore a range of composition tools you can use in different settings. You’ll learn how to build and adapt an idea in an accessible way, enabling success across a range of different abilities and support needs.

Ensembles and Differentiation

From one-to-one learning to full-class activities, get your pupils playing with others quickly and easily. Discover top tips for differentiation and ensemble support.

1:1 Follow-up Session

This is an opportunity for you to work 1:1 with course leaders after the main sessions have been completed. The content of these sessions is entirely up to you. We can work with you on resources, help develop ideas, troubleshoot, or help with specific questions you may have.

Our training is designed for anyone delivering and supporting music sessions. For example, music educators, practitioners, community musicians, music therapists, and instrumental teachers.

If you aren’t sure about the level of basic music knowledge required and whether this training is for you, please get in touch for some guidance and we’d be happy to help.

What do our trainees say?

The best CPD I've ever done! 

I've gained loads of workshop content that will last for years, not only from the training content, but everyone else's ideas too.
