WORKSHOPS

Steven Courtney's "Let's Write A Song" workshop, is a fun and creative learning experience for your students. Steven and the students work together to develop lyrical ideas. Steven then guides students to develop their original lyrics into a lyrical song. These lyrics are matched with a host of musical styles and tunes performed by Steven.

A hilarious musical history tour ensues!

Children are thrilled to learn about music's roots, while hearing their lyrics travel through time. Steven teaches the children a chosen melody, and singing together they record a demo of their new song! Students are delighted when they listen to their very own musical creation!
