Understanding your music!!

Hi team,

You are now really underway with your group performances. As we head into the phase where you work on the performance element of your song, it is important that you know and understand what the song is about. This week research your song and write a blog post. Include the composer and performer of the original version, What the song is about and any political or social issues it may or may not cover!

Hi team,

Remember that you have deadlines coming up.... You are preparing for a practise solo performance in Week 8. This can be just a quick 30 seconds of something as this is purely just practise at performing in front of an audience bu yourself.
Group performance - we are looking at a final performance deadline of week 10. Next week ( week 7) should be the final week of learning your individual parts. After this you will be rehearsing as a group.
