Leading Edge team member, Conor Doherty brought a group of Yr 12 ethnomusicology students to Linden Bridge School for autistic students. We rehearsed in advance and hired a minibus to bring ourselves and equipment, says Conor. We put on a performance for the school and then got their students involved with dancing and singing. The response was very positive from the staff and students and brought some West African music into the Lynden curriculum. Our own BRIT school music students gained valuable experience of working with autistic children and increased their performance confidence.
