Sistema England
Here you will find video clips of Repertoire taking place on Sistema-inspired programmes in England, as well as a downloadable Tips & Tools for Repertoire resource from teachers for teachers.
Using the right repertoire, and using repertoire well are important to all music educators. Teachers on Sistema-inspired programmes chose to focus on repertoire as an area for peer-sharing to benefit from resources and approaches already used effectively by others, especially those working in similar contexts. The tips and tools found here are focused on ways to access, create, adapt and compose repertoire.
‘Repertoire is key. It is through making and performing great music together that young musicians are motivated and inspired to aspire and achieve excellence; over time, their families and communities become engaged. Through differentiation and using a social pedagogical approach great repertoire, drawn from different genres, is made accessible; horizons are widened and prejudices and taboos removed.’
Richard Hallam MBE, Chair, Music Education Council, Trustee, Sistema England
