NOA Music

Thanks everyone who came to the Xmas lights switch on today. It’s such a special thing we have here, and I’m super proud to be part of it. Send photos/footage if you have it

Star member of DJ Club, Rainbow Riot. Captured here ripping it up at this week’s Friday Night Live. Come along next week for another guaranteed classic.

Most people couldn’t complete a Level 3 Music course in a single year, doing most of the work in their own time, but if you’ve met Mike even once, you’ll know he isn’t like most people. Super proud of this guy, next stop the music industry via @BIMM_Institute.

Super proud of NOA Music alumni Bekka, photographed here just after performing at Truck Festival! Check out her latest here: open.spotify.com/track/2M3sr…

Unreal mural of @st_vincent by one of our sixth form students in my classroom. So proud to teach this incredible musician and artist.

Nights like tonight are why we do this job. That creaking sound you heard at the end of the show was THE BAR BEING RAISED. Thanks everyone for making the first large scale live music event since December 2019 an absolute classic 💙❤️ As usual send me your photos and videos

Year 10 and Sixth Form NOA Music students will remember Santú from our visit with @BIMM_Institute. Great to see this awesome band in Banbury again.

Dhol workshop with @inspireworksuk for #UnitedInMusic, Webinar with @passingnotesed, workshop with @BIMM_Institute, amazing feedback from our R&S visit and AN ACTUAL SHOW FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2019. Business as usual for your favourite dept in Term 4. Have a great break.

The good times are back. Thank you everyone for being part of an unbelievably powerful and emotionally charged night of live music. I cannot believe how high the standard was this evening. Some incredible debuts and the usual brilliance from the old guard. I love my job 🥲🥲🥲🥲

Ramadan Mubarak to all of our Muslim students 🕌🌙

Just took delivery of a batch of left-handed pianos (they go from high to low!), expect to see them in your lessons real soon!

Our new favourite band courtesy of @BIMM_Institute, I urge every music teacher out there to book these guys for the school tour if you can
