Members of Ensemble Byron Choir are in a recording studio for Icon Theatre’s ‘The House That Floated Away’. They are being very professional & are doing a great job!
Year R had an amazing treat this afternoon listening to music composed by Noah Lock to Julia Donaldson's Room on the Broom. The children said that Noah was the best composer in the world and created a card to say thank you. #JuliaDonaldson#RoomontheBroom@NoahOnTheBass

Our year 4 recorders had a lovely afternoon & evening rehearsing & performing in The Recorder Festival at @Gravesend_GS They got to see & hear a ContraBass Recorder which was taller than the adult musician playing it! Their solo piece was a triumph & they showed dedication.🎼🎶🎵
FS have had a fantastic week exploring different musical instruments. They have been creating music by using repeating patterns and trying to play them correctly. #youngmusician#repeatingpatterns#creatingmusic
FS were cutting & sticking pictures of instruments to make patterns and then performing their compositions this afternoon during free flow. They recalled the names of the percussion instruments and could play loudly, quietly, quickly and slowly. 🥁
Huge thank you to Mrs Davies and Mr Lock from @ByronSchool for taking our children to the Music@Malling Scratch Orchestra event today 🎶🎼 @WestbrookTrust
5 members of @ByronSchool Orchestra have helped compose a piece with some other children, including 7 members of @BWPrimary Orchestra, which they then performed at @musicatmalling Scratch Orchestra in the beautiful setting of Malling Abbey. We’ve had a fantastic time. Thank you.
