A play concert with Martin Harwood (fiddle, banjo, guitar, vocals) and Sarah Carroll (early years practitioner) for 0-5s and their grown-ups

Concerteenies presents ‘Play Concerts’ for 0-5 year-olds and their grown-ups, inspired by Site Gallery's current exhibition. Join Martin Harwood and Sarah Carroll for a concert series of high-quality live music and interactive musical freeplay.

The exhibition ‘Before, During & After: Here Now (How to keep the balance)’ by Appau Jnr Boakye-Yiadom is in part a film installation of an ongoing project of learning to play the drums. Our sessions will include musical responses to the exhibition including musical conversations, exploring rhythms, repetition, musical mirroring, mindfulness and listening. The musical freeplay section will include drums, boomwhackers, soundbops, gongs and chimes around the space for families to explore and interact with.

Sessions are inclusive and welcoming to all with buggy/ wheelchair access, nappy changing facilities, and breastfeeding is welcome. Kollective Kitchen is open from 8am.

Martin Harwood, multi-instrumentalist (fiddle, guitar, banjo, vocals) and community musician, is well-known on the local and national traditional music scene, having played in Skyhook, Caravanserai and local ceilidh groups. Alongside his performing work, Martin has nearly 30 years of experience as an early years musician, educator and trainer including running the hugely popular ‘Small Voices Big Noises’ weekly drop-in music sessions for 0-4s and adults.

Sarah Carroll is a Sheffield based singer and workshop leader specialising in Early Years music. Having grown up singing with the National Youth Choir, she now sings more locally with Sonority, Steel City Choristers and The Sheffield Beatles Project. She is a Creative Practitioner with Concerteenies and works with Sheffield Music Hub and Sheffield Music Academy coaching, conducting and teaching young people. She is currently part of the CREC: Certificate for Music Educators programme.

These concerts are in partnership with Sheffield Music Hub.
