Song-Writing Workshop
If your residents feel creative then we can bring a song-writing workshop to you. You will work with our facilitator in a 45-minute session to gather ideas and then have a short follow-up session where the song will be taught and performed. The theme of the song can be anything, why not create an anthem for your care home?
Kitchen Sink Percussion Workshop
Live Zoom workshops designed to work on kitchen instruments / random percussion. You need everything INCLUDING the kitchen sink!! This stand-alone workshop is linked to a YouTube flash mob samba reggae; participants get an introduction to the instruments and techniques used in samba, then learn the lines to play along with the track. This makes it suitable for any size group, even smaller numbers. Sessions can be between 45 and 90 minutes in length.
Traditional Samba Workshop

Participants get an introduction to the instruments and techniques used in samba, then learn the lines to play along with a track. This makes it suitable for any size group, even smaller numbers. Sessions can be between 45 and 90 minutes in length.
From Junk to Funk
Come and join our recycling music workshop as we go back to basics and make music out of scrap! Find creative new ways of making your own instrument from a variety of everyday objects and then take part in our brand-new band as we tell stories, write new music and play, sing, scrape, strike and shake!
Informal Recital by Chetham’s Students
Once we are back at school we can bring our students into your home through either Teams or Zoom. A 30 to 45-minute concert featuring our talented young soloists will enthral your residents. We can also incorporate a short Q&A session.
