‘i See Music’ is a week long Summer Activity that is open to children, young people, adults and families. Run annually since 1997, the Summer School is focused on providing musical engagement opportunities through which skills and knowledge in South Asian Classical music are developed.

This year, the theme will be to explore music through art as well as encouraging intergenerational learning and conversation that will empower both the children and their parents to ‘see music’.  Parents will also have an opportunity to develop skills that they can utilise to take their Child’s learning beyond this activity

Through a 5,000 year old oral music tradition students will have the opportunity to learn the language of each instrument; be it the rhythmic patterns or the melodies, as well as gain historical and geographical knowledge and the development of mathematical skills using musical maths.  In addition, participants will develop communication (verbal, listening and writing) skills, team work, memory, stamina, and social skills while having great fun!  All this will lead to a better chance in life!

Featuring Sitar, Santoor, Tabla and Vocals.
