Music class in St. Vincent’s Transition Year has taken on a whole new direction this year. St. Vincent’s along with three other schools in Cork has been accepted for inclusion in the Composer in the Classroom Scheme. Through this scheme the students are given the opportunity to work with a song writer. The students will write the lyrics, compose the music and perform their own song with the assistance of singer/songwriter Colm Fitzpatrick. They are currently exploring ideas and themes for their song.
The work will continue throughout the year with a final performance of the completed song in April.
The students will keep you posted with their progress. Music teacher Ms. A. Murphy hopes that the experience will be very rewarding and one the students will remember in the years to come.
