This is the final part of my trilogy of blog entries on the subject of multi-outcome projects. In the very short term just gone, we decided to combine the two models of music session that we have been using at CEDA up until now (group / ensemble music making using a combination of mainstream instruments and AMT and 1:1 music production sessions on the aforementioned Assistive Music Technology workstation) into a group recording session.
Hello. As this is my first blog post on my newly-created Drake Music blog I wanted to introduce myself and share what I am working on for Drake Music.
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to deliver Disability Equality Training (DET) to music tutors working for Mayo Music Education Partnership in the Republic of Ireland.
This is a work-in-progress documentary about ‘In Motion’, the first commission by DM Connect and Collaborate London for a piece of music and an accompanying film by 4 disabled artists/musicians, filmed at Shape Arts’s Popup Gallery at 40 Gracechurch Street.
We’re creating something unique and we’d like to invite you to get involved and co-create it together.

Drake Music is shining a spotlight on SEN/Disabled music education! Throughout 2013 we’ll be searching the country for inspiring and interesting examples of SEND music teaching that we can shout about and share online – #dmspot

Richard had written a couple of melodies, which he played to me as soon as I arrived.
I am going to be helping Richard Povall to compose music again with the aid of his computer.
