Jam Time project was delivered to P7s at Northmuir, Letham, Strathmore and Langlands Primary. This was a free opportunity to have 2 workshops with professional musician Steven Gibbons.\u00a0 He introduced basic guitar chords, explored guitar styles and pupils played along instantly to modern backing tracks.\u00a0 Guitars were provided to schools for pupils to continue their interest.<\/p>\n

Pupil feedback from Langlands \u201cIt was great to be given the opportunity to play the guitar, due to our school being given the guitars. We loved learning new chords and getting to play along to a backing track. We liked playing as part of a group because you didn\u2019t feel put on the spot if you made a mistake. The tutorial wasn\u2019t just about us sitting back and listening, it was a practical, \u201chands-on\u201d session which was exciting. We also appreciated being give our own guitar pick! Thank you!\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Feedback from Letham pupils \u201cIt was fun, learning new songs, learning the chords, playing the rhythm to the song.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

This project is funded by Youth Music Initiative with an aim of offering young\u00a0 people opportunities to take part in enjoyable music making opportunities.<\/em><\/p>\n
