Inspirational Music Conference for Y10

On 19th April, fifteen musical Year 10 students attended the Futures in Music Conference at Newcastle University, to learn about career pathways in the music industry.

After a chance to experiment in the university’s professional recording studio, they observed panel discussions with industry experts on the reality of life as a performer, as well as professional roles behind the scenes.

They then participated in interactive workshops on live event management, PR relations with BBC Introducing, marketing and DJ-ing.

Finally, they were introduced to taking Music at degree level by one of Newcastle Universities senior lecturers. This was a really inspirational event, and helped to support Sacred Heart’s Aspirational Futures programme.
