CREATING GREAT CONCERTS
with Drew Downing
​
REVIEW. REVISE. REVAMP! Implement smart foundations and have the whole community talking about your school concerts!
Let's be real. There is nothing worse than a long and untidy school concert. Students disengage from them. Parents dread them.
​
If we set aside "giving students an opportunity to perform" each time we stage a concert or music night, what are we left with?
​
This professional learning session (now attended by over 150 Australian teachers) provides Music and concert staff with simple, easy to follow formulas and processes to create slick and polished events.
