Now in its eighth year, Playtime Summer Music Course will take place from 3rd – 7th August 2009.
Led by Julie Burt, this is a fun-packed week for children who love music, based at the Crescent
School in Rugby.
The Course
There is also the opportunity to learn a variety of songs in the ”Rock ‘n’ Roll Hour,” which this year
will feature more songs and more emphasis on vocal technique. However, those who don’t like
singing needn’t worry – every rock’n’roll song needs a rhythm section and there will be a variety of
percussion instruments available!
TIMING
Each day begins at 9.30 am and finishes at 3.30 pm, except for the last day, which will end after the
concert, at about 4.30 pm. I will provide drinks and biscuits for the morning break, but children should
bring their own packed lunch each day.
FREE TIME!
As well as rehearsing the music all the children can take part in fun and games. These may include
quizzes, videos and DVDs, and a treasure hunt on the final day. The emphasis is on fun – after all, it
is a holiday activity!
All the week’s music is performed in a “grand concert” for parents and friends on the Friday
afternoon, and all children are invited to play solos or in small groups if they would like to.
Julie Burt is Director of Music at the Crescent School, Rugby, and is also a cellist, singer, pianist and
conductor. She is an experienced recitalist, orchestral and continuo player, and as a child she was an
Associated Board Gold Medal winner for gaining the highest marks nationally in her Grade 7 cello
exam. She went on to study music at Bristol University where she specialised as a choral conductor.
She has been Director of Music at the Crescent since 1997.
