Guest lecturer set to strike the right note with music students

Posted: 23rd February 2021 - 5:00pm

Music students are set for a masterclass in event management with a special guest lecture on Friday, 26th February.

Leicester-based promoter John Helps will share his expertise and experience with our Level 2 Music students as part of the unit ‘Organising a Music Event’.

John recently received Arts Council funding for a project called HOME, in which 10 shows will be recorded at 10 different locations around the city and then streamed, with the artists on hand in the chat to interact with the audience. Find out more here: http://robotneedshome.com/home.

Matt Toole, a creative arts and music lecturer at Loughborough College, said: “The class are in the process of promoting their own shows which will inevitably be streamed due to Covid.

“Learning what is possible, from a promoter who is achieving success in the current climate, should be a highly inspirational experience and I am very grateful to John for giving up his time to speak to them.”
