 Very interesting - especially listening to people making up jingles based on the sounds of sweets.
Had great fun!

Thankyou Tania and Kevin for helping me to create the ringtone.
It means so much to me, as it has memories of my childhood, growing up with my friend Jenny.
​I will send it to her, and I know she and her family will treasure it.

I definitely enjoyed it. I particularly liked using the live looping music software which Kevin demonstrated
in week 2... that was the highlight for me. By week 6, I was using it at home on my iPad!

Very enjoyable - it's fun and I think it just brings things out and you don't think anything of it. A lovely feeling really... the melodies, the people... ​I look forward to coming.

I have made new friends, it's good, and you can have a laugh in the workshops. I particularly liked the visual scores and seeing what we each created.
