Image Junction 2006! 'Boom Bip'
Students from Henry Mellish and Haywood schools created music technology backing tracks for a film. Then they layered their own minimalist violin, guitar and percussion loops over the top, to form a complete score for the film. They gave a public performance of their piece to a back projection of the film. See the film and listen to the soundtracks here.
Now's the time! Haywood & Henry Mellish Jazz
For two days in October 2005, Year 8 students at Henry Mellish and Haywood schools became Jazz musicians. They learnt how to play the main melody parts to Charlie Parker's 'Now's the time' by ear. Whilst playing along to a live backing band, each student also played their own improvised solo part during the performance.
