February's Melodic Momentum!
Digit Learning
Helping Schools with Digital Music Education: Improving Inclusion, Well-Being, and Success for Students and Teachers.
Welcome to the February edition of our Digit Learning LinkedIn Newsletter!?
Whether you're a first-timer or a familiar face, we're excited to continue making music education fun, inclusive and relevant for young people with you.
This month, we’ve been out and about, having had the chance to meet up with some of you. It's always nice to put a face to a name.
What have we been up to? ?? ??
Music & Drama Education Expo 2024
A must-attend for anyone involved in music and drama education! We had a blast meeting so many of you in the TiME - Technology in Music Education UK Zone. Alongside Arcana Instruments , COSMO , Vochlea Music and others, it was two days jam-packed with music-making and a lot of fun!
Enfield Music Education Conference
The lovely folks at Enfield Music Service invited us to talk to Headteachers, Senior Leadership, & Music Leads at their conference. It was a great day where we delivered a hands-on session focused on bringing music technology into the classroom. They loved CMPSR and Arrownotes so much that they are now rolling out multiple ensembles across the borough.
Paraorchestra: Modulate Programme & CMPSR
Across four days at Bristol Beacon, we introduced our innovative instrument CMPSR to the Paraorchestra at their Tech + Play Event, as part of the Modulate Programme.
We were wowed by the talent and versatility of the musicians, showcasing how technology enhances their performances and opens up new soundscapes.
A special shoutout to Steve Varden who embraced CMPSR to elevate his live dance music performances, making music creation more intuitive and accessible.
“I had a real aha moment with CMPSR. One of the things that makes it so accessible to me is that it overcomes my physical inability to form chord finger patterns on a conventional keyboard. I simply don’t have the finger dexterity to do that but I do have more than enough hand control to have expressive control of CMPSR’s joystick and illuminated soft touch pads.” - Steve Varden, Paraorchestra
