AMP Internal Concert : 21 September 2023

What a vibe, what a thrill!

Our learners outdid themselves in a wonderful celebration of music. Taking part is compulsory for our instrumental learners giving them practice and confidence in performing. The audience of fellow learners gave encouraging support to everyone who took part and we were awed by the progress and talent on display.

Well done to the learners, teachers, interns and everyone who contributes to making AMP possible.

AMP bids farewell to Project Manager Shiloh Marsh, after 13 years of service, and welcomes new Manager Bridget Harrison.

Shiloh co-founded AMP in 2011 and has played a crucial role in making it the project which it is today. She will be greatly missed but her legacy will continue to impact music learners in the Makhanda community. We wish Shiloh everything of the best.

Bridget is a familiar face in the AMP office, having worked for the past year as AMP's Academic Coordinator. Bridget’s background is in music education, live theatre and administration. Her work as ABRSM Regional Coordinator connects her with many institutions around the country and gives her a keen understanding of the music education scene both locally and internationally. She has extensive experience with project coordination and management which has honed her high-level organisational capabilities. Bridget brings some key strengths to AMP, namely her skill in networking and collaboration, her resourcefulness, her reflective nature – thinking outside the box – and not least her strong passion for and commitment to AMP’s work.

A very warm welcome to Bridget!

Paul Hanmer gave a workshop to AMP learners on Saturday 29 July. He generously shared and performed his own compositions giving some of our learners the chance to play with him.

One never knows where these kind of opportunities will lead and how they will ultimately impact on the lives of young musicians. We were especially glad to see our younger learners take part and be brave enough to take up the invitation to play with Paul.
