Music students at Nottingham College are being treated to a performance and Q&A session with multi-talented hip-hop artist Juga-naut, plus a Massive Goals workshop with dual Paralympian Darren Harris, as part of their annual ‘Industry Week – Music Expo’ 25 to 29 March. The Expo is designed to set Music Performance and Music Technology students up for a career in industry.
Learn NewsAnother highlight of the week is the live-streamed TV shows featuring a mix of student performances across all genres. The shows are live on YouTube on Tuesday 26 March and Thursday 28 March 10.30am – midday and 1pm – 2.30pm.
This collaboration with media students will include performances by both music technology and music performance students, streamed from the venue at Clarendon Campus.
“The College is also welcoming back talented Nottingham singer-songwriter Jake Burns, who was featured on BBC Introducing, and multi-instrumentalist Alex Blythe.”
The TV shows will be filmed and streamed by Television and Film Production students, giving them valuable experience of camera operation, working to a director’s cues, floor management and live vision mixing.
College staff with years’ of industry experience will also be running workshops, including a Virtual Reality Expo, involving a live multisensory 360-degree music experience.
It will be dual Paralympian Darren Harris’s second visit to the College this year, after he inspired Performing Arts students at their industry week back in February.
The Music Expo also includes a DJ battle and beat battle, instrumental workshops, song-writing workshops, and other events.
“The Expos are a great way for the students to hone their skills and put them into practice, which helps prepare them for a career in the music, performing arts, and media industries. The support we’ve received from creative professionals, both home-grown and from further afield, really adds to the experience.”
