AS FEATURED IN THE TES- A TOTALLY UNIQUE SCHOOL MUSIC WORKSHOP

"Just to say a big thank you for the workshop and CDs. The kids had a fabulous day and I will definitely recommend you to other teacher friends of mine. The CDs were brilliant, we couldn't believe how good the quality was. We will definitely book several workshops next academic year. Thanks again.” K. Foster, Woodview Primary School. Birmingham. July 2011

What Happens Your pupils will work with professional children's composer Stuart Ross to write their own songs and record their own CD all in one amazing day! (Maximimum 4 songs per day). Remember the songs don't have to be 'Pop-songs'. They can cover almost any style of music you want, with the lyrics covering any theme that you want. LISTEN TO SAMPLES BELOW!

How It Works The day starts with a fun filled PowerPoint presentation about the art of song writing. Next, Stuart helps the pupils to write some lyrics and compose a melody line either as a whole class or in 'pop groups'! Then the magic really starts as Stuart instantly adds some wonderful backing music with his keyboard / computer and finally the children get to record their vocals using professional recording equipment. The children can either sing as a class, as pop groups or as soloists. The finished recordings are taken away to be painstakingly mixed, mastered and placed on a specially designed CD. (See below for further details)

Suitable for: Y4,5,6 & beyond.

Time needed: 1 school day for one class of children (Max. 45 pupils) to write and record up to 4 songs, either in 4 'pop groups' or as a whole class.

All Inclusive Price = Normally £345.

What Makes Us Unique Since we started this workshop nearly 10 years ago several other companies have sprung up trying to copy us... some even make the claim of being able to do it for free! However all these other companies offer is a type of 'karaoke recording service' – hardly educational! But with Learn2soar, the children really do write their own songs and gain so much in the process, valuable literacy and music skills as well as boosting their self confidence. We’re only aware of one other company that will write as well as record with the pupils, but they will only do this if they’re booked for a whole week and they’ll only produce one or two songs! However, our main composer Stuart Ross, who will be personally conducting your workshop, has the talent, experience and ability to be able to get the children to write and record up to four songs in a single day and still have time to deliver a fun presentation on the 'art of songwriting'! - A much better use of your time and money. Furthermore, Stuart is also a former primary school teacher and school music adviser, thereby ensuring that your workshop is conducted by someone with appropriate qualifications as well as vast experience.

And please beware of the so called 'free recording workshops’ that some companies supposedly offer... the small print of their contracts usually requires you to promise to purchase a few hundred copies of the finished CDs at several pounds each, making the final bill very, very expensive! With Learn2soar however, we give you all the costs up front. We will supply additional disks ONLY if required and ONLY at cost price (80p to £1 per disk depending on quantity ordered). You can re-sell them on for whatever amount you want. Therefore choosing a Learn2soar pop star workshop makes financial sense as well as educational sense.

"A FABULOUS day... An exceptional experience... We definitely want him back!"
K. Harris - Teacher.

Main Differences Between "I Want To Pretend To Be A Pop Star" & the "mini Pop Star" Workshops.

The "I Want To Pretend To Be A Pop Star" workshop is designed for one class of up to 45 children to record up to four songs in one day, either as a class or by splitting up into 'pop-groups'. The class also starts off the day by listening to a fun presentation about the art of song writing with special focus on writing lyrics. It is recommended for Yr 4/5/6 only (Ages 8-11).

The "Mini Pop Star" workshop is designed for a large amount of children rather than just one class. Therefore up to four different groups / classes / year groups can work with the visiting composer for about an hour each to write & record one song each. (NB This workshop works best when schools have drafted some lyrics in advance. This isn't a requirement but it is recommended.) To save time and to maximise the amount of time writing & recording the songs there is no introductory song writing presentation, just a brief introduction about the aims of the day. The "Mini Pop Star" workshop is recommended for Years 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 (Ages 6-11).
