Attention: open in a new window.

paul ineson senior lecturer and events manager. lancaster and morecambe college Lancaster and Morecame College discovered that by installing three Music Practice Rooms, the college not only made more effective use of available space, but also enabled them to reach out to support musicians in the local community.

Head of Music at Lancaster and Morecame College, Pete French explained that “this is only the third year we have been running this course and we required proper facilities. There was a need for music practice rooms because we had facilities that were a little bit outdated and we wanted something new to accommodate the new course that we are building on.” Describing the new suite of music practice rooms supplied and installed by Black Cat Music he said, “the facility used to be a lecture theatre, it was just one space we could use, fortunately now we've got three spaces. The music practice rooms are being used every day with all three year groups time tabled in they are getting maximum use. We also have some work with an outside community organisation called ‘More Music in Morecame’ who are now hiring them out on a Tuesday night, so we are getting use in the evenings as well, not just in the daytimes.” The opportunity for other local musicians to hire the facilities is also important for the college within the community.

Youth Development Worker, James Brill picks up the story about the two new Music Practice Rooms that have recently been installed at Hollington, Hastings, East Sussex. “We offer young people the chance to engage in music and have been running sessions before the Music Practice Rooms were installed. My main concern was noise pollution and complaints from the neighbours and community.” James continued, “Now we have absolutely no problems with the sound. The sound-proofing is absolutely second to none – fantastic,” he enthused.
