Bringing Music To Life!
Performance Week May 2023 Playlist - watch it grow!
Teaching Director Olwen Macleod introduces Performance Week:
Instructions
Performance week, from 24th April - 1st May 2023 (upload anytime until 15th May), is an opportunity to work towards a finished musical piece to 'performance' standard.
All lessons during Performance Week will be focused on how you can best shape and bring out the mood or style of the piece in the best way.
The finished recordings will be added together to create a special Your Space Music Lessons Performance Playlist.
We would like all students to work towards this goal, so here's what to do:
1. Guided by your teacher select one piece that you already know.
2. In each of your lessons leading up to Performance Week your teacher will help you develop a finished performance of your piece so that it conveys as much interest, variety and mood as possible. There may be clues in the title and on the score!
3. Performance Week w/c 24th April 2023 will be your goal to deliver a polished performance of your chosen piece. You will need to have a recording device available such as a video camera or mobile phone to record yourself performing your piece in landscape orientation. Please secure your recording device on a stable surface or clamped to avoid any wobbly recording.
4.During your lesson in Performance Week you should complete the finished piece and record it, with your teacher present, or shortly after the lesson if you prefer. We ask that a local recording is made to achieve the best quality recording possible.
5. Upload your finished recording to us (by 15th May 2023) via Google Drive by clicking and uploading here
6. We will then upload it to the Performance Week Playlists and they will get updated throughout the week.
