 voice, song, creating music, then there's the ensemble of ones like Teenage Kicks and Donegal Pops percussion and we also have art and dance. I think I forgot to mention voice there. So there's about six choices there but within each of those areas that I've just mentioned there's another whole range of choices. Say for instance in voice you could choose just solo voice or you could choose gospel choir or contemporary choir. So there's a broad range of choices for people who have very little musical experience to those that have maybe their grade five and piano. So it's right across the board not forgetting those beginning at age six because it's from six to 18 years. So six to eight years, semi-braves. They come in the door three hours in the morning and just get to experience the whole thing. And the beauty of it is that wherever the venue you're walking through and you're hearing all these said different sounds and there's singing in one room and then there's playing in another and then there's the percussion down in another one and it's fantastic. Oh absolutely and that's it. You know I always think for us on the Monday morning after all the students come in and they register and there may be some issues with timetable or whatever and then they all go off to their classes with the tutors and it's just lovely at about half past 10 you're walking around and like you said you can hear percussion, voice, piano whatever and just see the kids going around with the joy on their faces. That's what I say it's just the magic of the summer school. It's a brilliant collaboration between students, our fantastic pool of tutors some of whom are new this year, some of whom we've had for oh I'd say over the last 20 years between Fin Bardori and Seamus DeVenney who come from Anishone, then Saro Loughlin, Evan McGarregal from the other end of the county, Tom Duffy, Samba from Dublin and we've put new tutors this year as well and that's the beauty about it. They are the heart of it. You know we at the committee we may come and go but I can tell you it's hard to go off this committee but the tutors are really at the heart of it and I suppose another thing I'd like to mention as well John is the diversity of students and that's something we've developed over the years. This year thanks to Bursaries from Donegal Music Education Partnership who also give us instruments, Bursaries from the School Completion Programme in Mulroy, Errigal and Strenorla. We've got a great range of students, Ukrainian students, asylum-seeker students as well as students within Donegal who may not have had an experience of music before and that's what the Bursaries are for and that's I suppose social inclusion diversity. That's what we need wider in society as well as within our lovely little week. And the beautiful thing about it is for ages six up to what did you say 18? Yeah all right six days, semibreaves and then nine and upwards all the other classes but one of the beautiful things I found about it was it's a chance to let's say you're interested in playing the guitar and you could be at any level. You could start now if you might never even have played the guitar or you could be fairly accomplished but there's a place in the scooter for you and it's not just about guitar because you'll come in and they'll be learning about the guitar but then you have there's you've picked five classes so you get to do other instruments or maybe take a a voice workshop or maybe it could be music production it's an opportunity to try different things. Oh that's it and to stretch themselves and like you mentioned there you know for somebody that has experience in music they will do voice they will do gospel they could do orchestral percussion and then if they want to do something completely different they can do art and dance and alongside all of that then you have the likes of you know for the teenagers teenage kicks and that's a very collaborative where they work on a song in a group using the various skills within the group so that's very exciting and there's always a lovely performance out of that. Musical theatre that's a new thing this year as well and that's Sarah Loughlin is doing that so that involves acting expression movement through song and bringing it all together you know taking either a modern or a classical musical theatre works so like you say there's a bit for everyone and then the concerts they are fantastic you know that's where parents, guardians get a chance to come in and see what they've been doing all week some of those are in class but some of them then will be at lunchtime on the Friday some of them will be on the Friday evening but all of that information timetables have already been sent out to students who have registered information about concerts and to parents or guardian early in the week or you know at the early stages of the week because it's a live performance it's a live week so we're still putting the final you know the finishing touches to it this afternoon we'll be getting the instruments from Donegal Music Education Partnership bringing them up to Kalaashta Ali which is a fantastic venue we'll read it's our first year in it and we're really looking forward to it. You mentioned as well John about the you know the extra things that happened as well as the classes that people you know that they enroll in I remember in the convent and Daenerigal you know at lunchtime and especially with the good people outside playing you know they're various just jamming outside and that's magical as well and for the younger ones to see the teenagers doing that it's fantastic and of course there's been some great groups they've been some what would you say great outcomes from the week over the years she or was they started off in the Donegal Summer School of Music I regularly meet people in their 20s who say you know some of them piano teachers and yeah I went to the Donegal Summer School of Music so it's a great tradition we're holding the torch carrying it on but as I say the tutors really really are at the heart of it. Well it's on next week in Kalaashta Ali and the other Kenny and there's still some places available and if someone wants to find out more or to sign up where should they go? Okay so on that we have limited availability now in some classes so piano, voice, gospel, samba or kestrel percussion still a few places left in that best thing at this stage to sort of short circuit the process maybe go on the website have a look at the choices but then ring I'll call out the number now you could ring on 08 6664 9954 and that will you know just to have a chat with somebody at this late stage now so that we can short circuit the process or just yeah there's the email as well and that's on our website so look at our website DonegalSummerSchoolOfMusic.org and then give us a phone call and if you're thinking now god yeah I'd love to try that next by all means give us a call and you can guarantee you will have a great week. Well it's great to see back after back in full after an absence of two years in person DonegalSummerSchoolOfMusic in Meadowtown next week. Please start it. Thank you. Thank you very much John.
