Arts Alive Music Challenge for the school holidays.

Sonia Bullot —

Together within your bubble, work on a short musical item based on your whanau/family's experience of isolation. Record it on a device and send or share it to sbullot@katikaticollege.school.nz to be made into a community collaboration by April 14 if you would like to share this with others.

You don’t need instruments. You could make up a song together with or without instruments and create rhythms using kitchen items, body percussion or buckets and sticks.

Presentation: Dress up, be creative, daring and have fun!

Some holiday/isolation ideas.

  • YouTube is a great resource to learn a musical instrument. Search up the karaoke version of a song you want to sing.
  • Follow bucket drumming by Sammy Foster on YouTube, grab some buckets, pots and sticks or utensils (get creative) then drum and sing along.
  • If you have a keyboard or piano at home that you have always wanted to learn. Search for the name of a song you want to play then type in easy keyboard then follow the visual.
  • Compose your own music and create your own songs on Sound trap. Free membership at the moment. www.soundtrap.com
