Music staff from the Cockpit Theatre and pupils from Pimlico School worked on this minute together. Collaboration between music teachers and students can often create space for new ways of learning about and making music, both within and outside the classroom. When practicing active or comparative listening techniques, pieces such as this one can be a useful starting point. See below for further resources surrounding active and comparative listening.
Other subjects, such as History, can be augmented with the addition of active listening techniques. Contemporary music, for example, can be included in a multimedia presentation relating to a particular historical moment, thus increasing student awareness of cultural context. Active listening is also a key communicative skill and music can be a great way to introduce it into the classroom in a fun and engaging way.
