Description

Welcome to The Rock Project Aberystwyth

****For more than just music lessons****

As a dedicated rock and pop music school for 7-18 year olds & Adults in our "Encore sessions" budding musicians can learn how to play Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums or Vocals The Rock Project is the place to be for all musicians of any level, whether you are a complete beginner or more advanced wanting to progress with public performances or forming bands.

KIDS & TEENS
Not only do we provide music lessons but as part of the tuition session we include a music quiz which is the ideal opportunity to include some theory and history of music in a fun way. The music students will also be encouraged to form their own bands and perform in jam sessions, all heading towards stage confidence and an end of year concert. As well as some performing at local events.

The lessons run weekly in conjunction with school term times, for 2 hours per age group ( 7-11 & 12 -18) All of our tutors are DBS checked and have an incredible musical background between them, from music degrees, live performance and recording studios. They will be able to teach the students all aspects of becoming a well rounded musician.

ADULTS
The Rock Project Encore is a school of rock for 'mature students', it is based of the teaching methods & principles of The Rock Project, but for adults!

So if you are 20, 30,40, 50, 60, 70 something and have always had the dream of being in a rock band, Encore is just what you’ve been waiting for. You do not need any experience, we welcome beginners on the other hand if you have been a bedroom player all your life and want to play with other musicians then this is your chance.

Courses run for a term (in line with state school term times) You sign up for the initial term and then decide whether you would like to to join the next course and continue on your chosen instrument (or swap if you wish)

Each session lasts for 90 minutes. Firstly you will have a lesson on your chosen instrument in a group of no more than 5, this lasts for 45 minutes, this is then followed by a 45 minute plug and play session where you will be able to put into practice what you have learnt in your lesson, accompanied by the other students in the group.

During the course you will be learning enough material so that you will be able to perform in a showcase concert where friends and family can come along and see you become the rock star you always told them you would be one day!

Meet Lisa Wordley

Lisa – Guitar, Vocals, Classical Piano, Cornet , Trumpet and whatever else she can get a tune out of:

Lisa began playing classical piano at the age of 9, as an accomplished pianist the timing was perfect to transition into a rock keyboard player in the 80’s. She was a member of many club bands in the south of England, playing both covers and original material. She played in various gigs from open air festivals for the “British Motorcycle Association” (AKA “The Hells Angels”) to London’s “Epicentre of Rock”, The Marquee Club. Lisa also worked as a session musician in studios such as “The Crypt” used by Annie Lennox & Dave Stewart as well as other London based studios. She is also an accomplished Guitarist, Flugelhorn & Cornet player – having played in regional brass bands.

Over the past few years Lisa has been more focused on her Guitar and working as a sound engineer at some major music & arts festivals. She is also the person that is bringing The Rock Project to Mid Wales, she says “The Rock Project is an exciting and fun way of learning – music has been a constant companion to me through life”
