SUMMARY:Getting audio tracks out of a Digital Audio Workstation
DESCRIPTION:Saving\, downloading and sharing. You got your students to make a track using a Digital Audio Workstation\, but now what do you do with the audio? How do you save it or share it? If you teach NCEA\, how do you ensure you can mark it? This workshop is for any teacher and outlines how to save and export the audio (and midi) made in a Digital Audio Workstation. This will include practical examples with Soundtrap and Garageband. Other DAWs can be discussed but there won’t be time to demonstrate all of them.  This will be followed by different ways to share these tracks and tips for managing audio track files. This workshop will finish with some considerations of some different uses of individual tracks\, as opposed to a full song with all of the tracks combined. As always\, bring your questions.  \nThe workshop will be recorded along with the digital handout and will be uploaded to https://menza.co.nz/resource/digital-kaiarahi-resources/ \nThe zoom meeting does not have a password\, but does have a waiting room. Please join from 6:25 pm and wait to be admitted \n\n\n\n\n\nGet the Zoom link from the MENZA Facebook page.

SUMMARY:Young recorder virtuoso goes for Baroque
DESCRIPTION:Young gun musician Lily Doak has earned a soloist spot in two prestigious classical music concerts\, where she is keen to show what her favourite instrument\, the recorder\, can do. \nThe University of Canterbury (UC)’s School of Music presents Together Again in The Great Hall of the Arts Centre Te Matatiki Toi Ora on 22 June\, the first in the Arts Centre Chamber Series. The Baroque Music Community and Educational Trust of New Zealand presents “Beatles go Baroque” at The Piano Centre on 21 June\, with a similar programme. \nDoak\, a UC Biochemistry and Music (double degree) first-year student\, says she has always loved the recorder – an instrument most music students start with but soon leave behind. Yet the humblest of wind instruments has had a revival\, claiming back concertos that were originally written for recorder but have been performed on flute for many years. \nSerious about the recorder \n“I suppose recorder is the first instrument I played\, and I have played others since\, but it’s the instrument I am most attracted to because of the freedom and expression\,” Doak says. \n“Other wind instruments seem to have a lot more resistance. I enjoy the style of music written for the recorder\, baroque and the modern music that has been written since the revival of the recorder\, and new techniques that have been developed. It is crazy and so different\, and I want to show people what the recorder is capable of.” \nUC Head of Performance Professor Mark Menzies agrees the recorder is a serious proposition. \n“The recorder is often considered a school-kid’s instrument\, but in fact to play it well at the professional\, concert-performance level takes enormous skill and practice. Lily has been an extremely motivated recorder player since she started studies at UC\,” Professor Menzies says. \nTake Vivaldi’s La Notte\, which features on the programme for the upcoming concerts. It was composed for recorder and Doak has been eager to perform it for five years. Now she has the chance and listening to different recordings as she prepared\, she found some surprising interpretations\, she says. \n“La Notte is a journey into the night. A group called Red Priest did a version and they called it ‘the nightmare’ – theirs was as close as baroque gets to heavy metal\, they took it to the extreme.” \nDoak isn’t taking the heavy metal approach\, however audiences are still in for a surprise. \n“There are moments of calm and movements where you go crazy and you can’t believe you can play that fast!” she says. \nHer other piece is by German composer Georg Philipp Telemann: “It is lighter and explores different musical styles from the French overture to Italian airs; you have to pay attention to the style you are imitating and switch styles within the one piece.” \nTime management is key \nThe talented young musician began studying at UC while still at Burnside High School. \n“The two years she spent studying both music and science while also finishing high school studies was a testament to her talent\, her ability to connect on a mature musical level\, and her delightful musicality\,” Professor Menzies says. \nDoak has been a national finalist in the New Zealand Chamber Music Competition\, a member of the New Zealand Secondary Schools Symphony Orchestra\, principal clarinet of the Burnside High School Orchestra and student conductor of the Burnside High School Junior Concert Band. \nShe is a current member of student-founded Seasonings Ensemble at UC. With playing\, music and biochemistry to juggle\, her time management skills have to be excellent. \n“I have a very strict timetable where I plan every second of the day. When I don’t stick to that\, things spiral out of control quite quickly. I work better when I am busy\, it has made me a lot more passionate about my playing.” \nAs for a future career\, Doak is still working it out\, she says. \n“I love science and music\, so maybe I will become a scientist or maybe I will play baroque music for the rest of my life. I don’t know yet. Right now I am enjoying learning and all the opportunities I have.” \nProgramme:  \nTalented musicians\, led by UC Music Professor Mark Menzies\, will perform Vivaldi Recorder concerto “La Notte” RV 439\, Concerto Grosso “Beatles Go Baroque” and other hidden gems of Baroque music. \nRecorder – Lily Doak\nViolin – Mark Menzies\nCello – Tomas Hurnik\nHarpsichord – Daniel Cooper\nString ensemble of the University of Canterbury \nEvent details: \n“Beatles go Baroque” – Baroque Music Community is on 21 June at 2pm at The Piano: Centre for Music and the Arts. Tickets $30 adult\, $20 senior\, $10 student\, $5 child. Buy tickets here. Door sales also available.\nTogether Again is on Monday June 22\, 7.00pm at The Great Hall\, Arts Centre Te Matatiki Toi Ora. Tickets $20\, $10 concession. Buy tickets here. \n

SUMMARY:Teacher Training in Music Technology MUSIC & VIDEO PRODUCTION Christchurch
DESCRIPTION:Producing quality videos for online submissions\n\n\nAs a result of COVID19 many school competitions such as Rockquest and the Chamber Music NZ Competition are now inviting video submissions of school bands and ensembles. \n​While these competitions don’t require a top quality studio recording of your school groups\, wouldn’t it be nice to know how to get much better quality video and audio than just recording on someone’s phone or sticking up a handycam for the group to perform to? \n​In 2019 one of groups from St Andrew’s College won the national Bandquest competition with this video recorded in their music room. If you would like to make videos which sound and look like this\, then these workshops are for you. \n​Topics covered: \n\n\nEquipment required including what software to use\, what microphones to buy\, the best audio interfaces for a high school budget. \n\n\nHow to setup DAW templates for fast recording and mixing \n\n\nWhat is the best way to record experienced and inexperienced bands \n\n\nHow to mix quality recordings within the ‘rules’ set out by the Rockquest\, Bandquest and Chamber Music competitions \n\n\nWhat are the best software plugins to buy (including highlighting the latest trends in the mixing world that greatly simplify the mixing process). \n\n\nHow to use free video editing software to create multi-angle music videos \n\n\n​ \nDuncan Ferguson will be running two days of workshops in July (prior to the Rockquest submission date) where you can join in on the recording of his year 7-9 band “Black Wired” (featured in the video linked to above). On Saturday 4 July the day will be a hands-on session showing how to select and setup all the gear\, and run a recording session while videoing the performance. Sunday 5 July will be dedicated to mixing the performance and creating the final video. \n​The Christchurch workshops will be the best and most hands on days and teachers are encouraged to attend these first and foremost.  Please note\, while the main focus will be recording rock bands for Rockquest we will also be covering recording other ensembles such are Chamber Groups and Choirs. \n​However\, for those that are unable to travel to Christchurch Duncan will offer one-day versions of these workshops in Auckland and Hamilton on 13-14 October. Note\, there will be no ‘live’ recording session for the Auckland and Hamilton workshops\, but we will do our best to cover all the same material in one day\, including giving hands on lessons on how to do all the post-production mixing and video production work. \n​These days will be suitable for beginner and experienced teachers including primary and intermediate music specialists. For those that haven’t done any recording of music before Duncan will send out some guidelines for what you need to know to prepare for these workshops so you can get the most out of them. \n\n\n\n\n\nVENUES AND DATES\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCHRISTCHURCH\n\n\nSaturday 4 July \nSt Andrew’s College \nRecording and videoing \n\nCHRISTCHURCH\n\n\nSunday 5 July \nSt Andrew’s College \nMixing & Post Production \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAUCKLAND\n\n\nTuesday 13 October \nVenue TBC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHAMILTON\n\n\nWednesday 14 October \nVenue TBC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$159 + GST per day for Auckland and Hamilton.\n$270 + GST for both Christchurch workshops (or you can attend just one of the days in Christchurch for $149 + GST)\nAll workshops run from 9.30am–2.45pm.\nPayment is due on receipt of invoice and must be paid \nin advance. No refunds will be given for non-attendance. \nPlease note: morning tea will be provided but you will need to provide your own lunch. \n​\n\n\nPlease click here to register for these workshops

SUMMARY:KBB Music Fesival
DESCRIPTION:The Auckland Secondary School’s Music Festival Trust is excited to announce the KBB 2020 Band & Orchestra Showcase. We are offering our participating schools – and any other schools who would like to come on board – a chance to present some of their planned 2020 repertoire to a wider audience. Owing to the hugely decreased time for preparation and difficulties faced by different schools\, the performances will not be formally adjudicated. However\, this change in format also presents us with a unique opportunity – we would like to get to know you\, the staff and students of our KBBMF ensembles\, better than ever before. \nOur Facebook traffic suggests that one of the main reasons that young people come to our page is for links to past photography and videos. Using that as a starting point\, we’ve come up with a format for a KBB Music Festival YouTube channel which will showcase the work being done in schools\, to an audience both with the Auckland region and beyond. \nThe KBB 2020 Band & Orchestra Showcase invites participants to submit: \nApproximately 10 minutes of video footage of your band/orchestra performing some of their 2020 repertoire. The festival may be able to coordinate assistance for this process if needed. \nA three-minute\, behind-the-scenes video revealing the ‘unique character’ of your ensemble; the sort of thing that the audience at KBBMF never gets to see. \nThese videos will be compiled and uploaded to the newly create KBB Music Festival YouTube channel. \nWe would like entrants to register their intention to participate in the online festival by Wednesday July 1st\, to give us time to prepare. \nVideos would need to be uploaded to the KBB Music Festival Website by Friday 21st August to be eligible for awards. There is no competitive aspect to this year’s musical performances\, but our sponsors have offered to select their picks of the best/funniest/most effective behind-the-scenes videos and offer some fun prizes. \nIdeally groups would submit videos in both categories. We will perform some minimal processing on the footage to achieve some consistency by attaching identifying festival logos/title screens etc. Depending on the situation faced by your department\, you may find that it is only realistic to bring off one of these video projects\, not both. You are still welcome to submit one project and not the other. \nSchools with multiple ensembles are of course welcome to submit multiple videos. \nThere will be NO FEE for involvement in the KBB Music Festival during 2020. \n  \nRegistration and details at: \nhttps://www.kbbmusicfestival.co.nz/

SUMMARY:Developing Language Through Music And Dance For Teachers Of 4-7 Year Olds
DESCRIPTION:VENUE: University of Auckland Epsom Campus\, 74 Epsom Ave\, Auckland\nGate 3 B Block (first building on the right) \nThis event includes two x 105 minute workshops: \nSound and symbol – connecting music and language\nA child’s early years offer opportunities to develop a musical identity and discover the “musical self”. The natural connection between words\, images and sounds found in poetry and books provides useful starting points for music-making at all levels. This workshop explores a range of music possibilities including rhythmic layering\, adding background music\, developing musical themes to represent characters\, and vocal exploration and songs to represent key ideas in stories and poems. \nDancing Music to life\nEvery story has a dance in it ! This workshop will find those dance story possibilities and get your words moving. Dance has its own language and the more familiar we are with it\, the more naturally the links to literacy come to mind. From word warm ups to dancing stories\, this workshop will not only get you thinking. It will also be a lot of fun ! \nPRESENTERS: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRobyn Trinick\nRobyn is an expert and highly experienced teacher and presenter who works in teacher education at the University of Auckland.

For many years she has also made access to Maori language and culture an inspiring part of her teaching. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClare Battersby\nClare is a vibrant\, creative and experienced dance teacher and presenter both here and overseas. She will encourage you in a safe\, inclusive environment to spread your wings and weave the arts into all areas of children’s learning. She was a recipient of a Dance Subject Association of New Zealand 2017 Life member Award. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo register for this workshop: \nRegister your name and details online HERE. Then\, use your own internet banking facility to make a direct deposit into the ONZA account at BNZ 02 0248 0073940 097     Reference: Your surname; Code: AKL15AUG Entering your surname means you will be registered.

SUMMARY:Writing Songs for Children - A workshop with Kath Bee
DESCRIPTION:So\, you want to write songs for your tamariki? Cool! The goal of this workshop is to write and perform a song to the group. Don’t worry about the nerves – it’s normal! We will do some exercises to get into the mindset of a child\, discuss what children like to hear in a song and why\, talk about different types of children’s songs\, the basics of song structure\, to rhyme or not to rhyme\, then brainstorm themes/topics and settle down to write. \nBring your instrument if you play\, but it’s not necessary – we will mostly focus on lyrics and touch briefly on melody/chords. I’ll attempt to answer your questions and play some of my songs for you as examples. Then we can sit back and listen to what unfolds! \nThis is a 2-hour workshop and the last 1/2 hour will be performances. \nPlease register by Friday 4 September using https://forms.gle/L97HSJEMdfYFmopD9 or by contacting Alison Caldwell at acaldwell@stclair.school.nz \nPlease note: participants will be required to adhere to Ministry of Health Guidelines for COVID Alert Level 2.

SUMMARY:Wānanga Puoro - Teachers’ Music PD workshops
DESCRIPTION:Music and dance hold great potential for learning\, expression and empowerment for our tamariki\, but often teachers feel they don’t have the skills\, methods or time to teach these subjects. \nAs Music Specialist kaiako at Te Ara Whānui Kura Kaupapa Māori for the past 4 years\, I have experienced wonderful success in enabling ākonga to explore their creativity through the arts\, resulting in powerful learning and personal growth. \nCome and join me for a fun\, hands-on PD workshop to learn activities and ideas that will help you to bring more music and movement into your classroom\, along with te reo & tikanga Māori. Music is for everybody in this nurturing\, child-centred approach\, so whether you’re a rock goddess or a bit nervous about the idea of trying it\, you will find this wānanga very worthwhile. \n\nSat 15th August 10am – 1pm at Westreap for ECE (ages 3-5) to Year 2\nSat 22nd August 10am – 1pm at Westreap for Years 3-8\nSat 29th August 10am – 1pm at Buller Reap for ECE (ages 3-5) to Year 2\nSat 12th September 10am – 1pm at Buller Reap for Years 3-8\n\nCost: Participation in the workshops is free for members of MENZA (Music Education NZ Aotearoa)\, and only $30 for non-members\, which also gives you the benefits of a year’s membership. Alternatively\, if your school joins MENZA for just $30 (in total)\, all staff can attend for free! \nPlease register via this link: \nFeedback from previous workshops: \nI had fun with the activities you had chosen to do with us. Thanks for showing me (who feels I’m not musically inclined at all!!) that it need not be scary or hard to include in my daily timetable. \nApi Nathan\, AP\, Otari School. \nAbsolutely enjoyed myself\, time well spent. Will definitely be recommending your wānanga to others.    Raureka Gray\, TKKM o Te Rito \nI enjoyed everything! I am not usually coordinated but the delivery and simple yet effective kēmu were easy and enjoyable enough to join in. I can see how these tools can be used within my own classroom and will be beneficial for all tamariki        Sharron Handscomb\, Koraunui School \nMīharo e te tohunga!! Ngā mihi nui Makaira! I learnt lots of different ways to incorporate our taonga into our programmes – papaki ā tinana\, ngā kupu hou me ērā mea. Thought straight away of our tamariki who would possibly benefit from this. Will implement and use some of these amazing ideas āpōpō.        Teresa Kenny\, Koraunui School \nI would like to invite Makaira back to present the workshop to all kaiako. Cordry Huata\, Tumuaki\, Te KKM o Ngāti Kahungunu ki Heretaunga \nI am terrible with puoro\, but this wānanga was fantastic.  Kaihou\, TKKM o Te Whare Tapere o Tākitimu \nI would like him to take our Kōhanga Reo staff through this wānanga.  Huia\, Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Whare Tapere o Tākitimu \n\nFor more inspiration\, check out this UNICEF article\, the Te Ara Whānui sound garden\, or the Hā Ora resource in Te Rito Toi.\n\nNgā mihi mahana\, nā\n \nMakaira Waugh \nTe Atiawa

SUMMARY:ANZARME (Australian & New Zealand Association for Research In Music Education)
DESCRIPTION:As you are aware\, COVID-19 has had a dramatic impact and forced the cancellation of many face to face events. The ANZARME committee held off making a final decision on the viability of our 2020 Gold Coast Conference as long as possible\, and concluded that it is just not possible to proceed at this time. While we are disappointed that we cannot go ahead as originally planned\, we are excited to announce that we will be going ahead with ANZARME 2020 as an online event. \nThe online conference will run over October 3 – 4 (in line with original conference dates) and we are grateful to The University of Melbourne for their kind offer of hosting the online conference. Prospective participants are invited to submit abstracts now\, and successful presenters will then be invited to create a 15 – 20 video of their presentation for uploading into the conference platform at least 2 weeks prior to the event. Presentations will then be available for viewing by conference delegates from this time. The conference will then comprise a series of themed online sessions over the two days October 3 – 4. Details as follows: \nWhat to do \nIf you are interested in presenting\, the call for abstracts is now open. Abstracts up to 250 words must be registered and submitted via the ANZARME website https://anzarme.com.au/ before August 21. Abstracts will be double blind peer reviewed\, and successful presenters will be notified as soon as possible. This process complies with current conference arrangements \nOnce accepted\, presenters will be asked to create a 15 – 20 minute video of their presentation and upload it via the link on the ANZARME website. A slide template will be available for presenters on the ANZARME website\, and videos can be in any format. Technical help will be available through the website\, and presentations must be uploaded by September 17 at the latest. \nAll wishing to access the online conference will be asked to register through the ANZARME website\, whether presenting or not. We are pleased to announce that the cost of the conference will only be $50 for delegates\, and $25 for students. \nFurther details on the actual online format will be forthcoming soon. At the moment\, a lot of work is going on behind the scenes finalising the technical arrangements and I am grateful to ANZARME committee members Dr Emily Wilson\, Dr Brad Merrick\, Martin Emo and Associate Professor Annie Mitchell for their work at relatively short notice to get this event up and running. The website is currently being updated and should reflect the above within the next two weeks. \nImportantly\, ANZARME 2020 will be going ahead. Please make sure you submit your abstracts as soon as possible if you interested in presenting in this exciting new format. \nI am also pleased to announce that ANZARME 2021 is planned for the Gold Coast\, and ANZARME 2022 for Invercargill in New Zealand. \nThank you for your patience and understanding\, and we look forward to welcoming you to ANZARME 2020 online. \nBest wishes \nDr Geoffrey M Lowe \nPresident\, ANZARME \nSenior Lecturer in Music Education \nEdith Cowan University

SUMMARY:Free music therapy webinar: Evaluating how a music therapy service is valued by its community
DESCRIPTION:In 2019 the Raukatauri Music Therapy Trust was awarded a grant by the NZ Lottery Grants Board to commission an independent evaluation of its services. The evaluation was designed to identify the values and impacts that RMTT services have for its clients\, families and outreach partner organisations\, and the factors that support and challenge participation in RMTT services. \nIn this webinar\, Adrian Field from evaluation company Dovetail and Jen Ryckaert from Raukatauri discuss the process of the evaluation and its findings. They will share reflections and learnings for both Raukatauri and the wider music therapy profession in Aotearoa New Zealand\, particularly around public understanding of music therapy and the value of relationships within music therapy and the wider disability community. \nJen Ryckaert is the Clinical and Centre Director of the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre\, and a practising Registered Music Therapist. During her time as Director\, Raukatauri has realised unprecedented growth and currently serves over 500 clients across the lifespan each week in Auckland\, Northland and Hawke’s Bay. Jen originally joined the Raukatauri team in 2015\, following work as the Music Therapy Clinic Manager and Visiting Assistant Clinical Professor of Music Therapy at Nazareth College in Rochester\, New York. Jen enjoys being a part of the larger music therapy community in New Zealand and currently serves on the NZ Music Therapy Registration Board. \nAdrian Field is the director of Dovetail\, an Auckland-based research and evaluation company. Adrian’s work helps organisations uncover the difference they are making\, and support positive change in communities and systems. Adrian was trained as a social science researcher and has been evaluating services and programmes for some 20 years. Adrian is an honorary academic at the School of Population Health (University of Auckland) and the national co-convenor of the Aotearoa-New Zealand Evaluation Association (ANZEA). \nRegistration closes on Monday 5th October\, at 5pm
