Short presentation designed to show young people that there are some very cool people that play musical instruments.
Show a list of names and ask the students to see how many they recognize and why they are famous.
Next page shows their fame and can be used to talk about any that were missed by the students.
Now reveal one by one what their musical skills are.
Can be enhanced by showing videos from youtube there are some of Nathan Ake that will be good for the footballing boys of him playing piano.
The last few pages show how a more unknown to them Maurice Murphy who was lead trumpet of the London Symphony Orchestra has been a big part of their lives. His trumpet is the iconic sound in Star Wars, Superman, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Harry Potter , amongst others.
The aim is to encourage students to take up an instrument and to view it as a good thing that actually is quite cool!
