We are delighted to announce that Blues Echoes has a special Schools package including:
​
* a double session workshop - where students learn about the history of the blues tradition from the enslaved African population to it's evolution in Southern America till today.
​
* a special 60 minute show - suitable for High School age pupils.
​
We would like to work with schools on making this a real community event that can reach out to parents and locals.
​
Please get in touch for more information.

What a recent High School had to say about the show and the workshop:
Teaching Staff:
"The pupils were highly engaged throughout the Blues workshop. They collaboratively created a song inspired by their school and hometown, beautifully reflecting the ethos of cynefin. All pupils left the session smiling and enthusiastically shared how much they had enjoyed the experience."
******************************************************
"Personally I found the workshop incredibly beneficial, both as an interested party and as a teacher.
Once pupils had opened up to joining in they really gained a lot from the first session- a more historical background into the blues, the culture, where words and attitudes came from. Music students were buzzing when they came down at break time, they gained an awful lot from the session."
Pupils: Aged 11-16
