About
This series of videos have been created in an interactive youth lead experience for schools, allowing children and young people to take the lead on planning and creating content and an opportunity to interact and interview music industry professionals and performers.
It is a fantastic vehicle for bringing the music industry into the classroom, inspiring pupils to work within our industry and developing aspirations for the future. This project has been specifically created to support teachers and young people to understand more about the many roles and pathways into the music industry.
The first three videos from this project are now live on our youtube channel. More will be released throughout the year.
Musicians and Performers
Watch youth-led interviews with Musicians and Performers and learn about their experience in the music industry.
Visionary saxophonist, composer, bandleader and innovator Camilla George answers questions about working in the music industry from Southampton Music Hub's next generation of jazz musicians.
Camilla's strong cultural roots and love of fusing African and Western Music has informed her own unique style. Her music is a hypnotising blend of Afrofuturism, hip hop and jazz.
