SUMMARY:New Music Makers Workshops and Performance
DESCRIPTION:What is it? \nNew Music Makers is a school’s composing project that takes place over four sessions\, in partnership with your school’s music department staff and instrument instructors. Whatever the pupils write we take seriously; we don’t require them to produce perfectly notated works right away. Red Note composers and players work alongside staff and pupils to explore and create new music. We work with their initial ideas by interpreting them on the spot. By building a level of trust between the musicians and pupils\, they progress rapidly\, creating fully-formed\, fully-notated\, coherent pieces within three weeks. Watch our short film here. This project has been made possible with thanks to support from The Robertson Trust. \nWho is it for? \nWe usually work with Higher/Advanced Higher pupils (though we are happy to work with Nat 5s). \nThe ability to use notation is useful\, but not essential. Finished scores can be notated\, or graphic\, or written instructions – so long as it’s the pupil’s own ideas\, and they can communicate these clearly using whichever method they choose. Red Note and school staff team will support pupils to be able to communicate their creative ideas to their performers. \nWhat are the results? \nEach pupil involved will create and finish a composition scored for three instruments \nSchools can organise to record the performance for exam purposes \nBy working with two classes\, the project leaves and genuine legacy of school staff who have experienced the process and are thus equipped to re-stage the project ‘in-house’ in the future. \nPupils develop their own creative voice in music composition. \nHow does it work? \nThe project will take place over four double periods plus a final performance at your school. Sessions are usually spread over four weeks (though can be condensed or spread out more if scheduling requires). The performance takes place on the same day as the last session. \nWe work with two classes: \nClass no.1 will be led by the Red Note Ensemble team\, observed by the school music staff and 3 school instrumental instructors. \nClass no.2 will be led by the school music staff and 3 school instrumental instructors\, supported by the Red Note team. \nSession One (single period) \nClass no.1            led by Red Note project leader
(observed by school team). Introductory session: introduces the team(s) and project to pupils\, initial chat about instruments. Classes could be combined for this one session; in which case Red Note leader would lead\, with contributions from school team. \nClass no.2            led by school team 
(supported by Red Note)     \nSession Two (double period) \nClass no.1            led by Red Note project leader + 3 Red Note musicians 
(observed by school team + 3 school music instructors). Instrument demos\, and the ‘Ten minute composing challenge’ \nClass no.2            led by school team + 3 school music instructors 
(supported by Red Note)            \nSession Three (double period) \nClass no.1            led by Red Note project leader 
(observed by school team). ‘Work in progress’ session – help with developing creative ideas\, piece structure\, getting ideas down on paper. Lots of one-to-one support \nClass no.2            led by school team 
(supported by Red Note)     \nSession Four (double period) and PERFORMANCE \nClass no.1            led by Red Note project leader + 3 Red Note musicians 
(observed by school team + 3 school music instructors). Rehearse pupils’ pieces. Final play-through/snagging/finishing touches of all compositions                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 \nClass no.2            led by school team + 3 school music instructors 
(supported by Red Note)            \nPERFORMANCE                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       \nClass no.2            led by school team + 3 school music instructors 
(supported by Red Note)            \nIdeally\, each finished composition will be performed at the informal end-of-project performance (friends\, family\, school staff invited). Class no.1’s compositions are performed by Red Note musicians\, Class no.2’s compositions are performed by the school’s 3 instrumental instructors. The project will be taking place in June\, after the exams period. \nAll we need from you: \nSchool music department staff must be present at all sessions and school music instructor team (3 musicians) must be available for sessions 2 and 4 & the performance. Their attendance at sessions 1 & 3 is beneficial and strongly encouraged\, though can be managed without if absolutely necessary. \nGet in touch \nIf you are interested in the project and would like to take part or find out more\, please contact Project Manager\, Siobhan Clark\, by email on newmusicmakers@rednoteensemble.com

SUMMARY:World Premiere The 306: Day
DESCRIPTION:The 306: Day\, the second part in Oliver Emmanuel and Gareth Williams’ powerful new First World War trilogy\, is set to embark on an expansive Scottish tour between 5 May and 3 June 2017. The show\, which explores how the conflict affected women\, families\, and communities on the home front\, will open at Perth’s historic Station Hotel on 5 May before setting off on a Scottish tour. It will visit venues\, town and village halls\, and civic spaces across the country\, including performances in Glasgow\, Clydebank\, Aberdeen\, Dundee\, Lockerbie\, Galashiels\, Ballachulish\, Wigtown\, Cove\, Nairn\, Arrochar\, and Fort Augustus. \nThe first part of the trilogy\, The 306: Dawn\, premiered in the summer of 2016 and marked the centenary of the Somme Offensive. Audaciously staged within a barn in the Perthshire countryside\, \nInspired by real events and first-hand accounts\, The 306: Day will tell the stories of three women left behind in the wake of the executions\, and their struggles to be heard above the clamour of the conflict. The year is 1917\, and the war across the channel rages on. In Russia\, a revolution is turning the social order on its head while at home in Britain\, there are women fighting their own battles. Rents are rising. Food is scarce. And war work can be deadly. \nThe show features a contemporary score performed live by leading members of the Red Note Ensemble\, who also contributed a deft and moving accompaniment to last year’s The 306: Dawn. Composer Gareth Williams is a long-term collaborator with both Red Note and Oliver Emanuel; the pair previously worked on The End of the World (for One Night Only) which Red Note commissioned\, developed and staged in Edinburgh in December 2012. The National Theatre of Scotland also reunites with Perth Theatre and collaborates with Stellar Quines for the first time\, under the new Artistic Directorship of Jemima Levick. \nThe 306: Day is co-commissioned with 14-18 NOW\, the UK’s arts programme for the First World War centenary. Support for the tour comes from The Gannochy Trust\, The Forteviot Trust\, and The Thomson Charitable Trust.
