Audition for TIE Tour of Italy- Pop Music & Culture Tour Workshop Leaders
Two musicians will tour the country, presenting interactive workshops to secondary school students.
A position on our Pop Music & Culture Tour involves touring around the country, leading Italian secondary school students (aged between 11 and 18) through interactive workshops based on ‘Pop Music and Culture’. You would be working independently with a class of about 25 students at a time. The workshop is already prepared (and successfully done on the road) and is primarily a power-point presentation with live guitar playing and singing throughout.
ALL APPLICANTS MUST BE CONFIDENT SINGERS WITH THE ABILITY TO PLAY GUITAR.
The songs you’d be performing are already chosen and go with the particular workshop requested. Songs are often updated during the tour to keep up with the Top 40 Chart. There are 3 different workshops offered depending on the students’ age. The workshops are 60 or 90 minutes long and you would usually do 2 or 3 a day in one or more schools, with around 25 students each time.
You wouldn’t be teaching the students music or how to play an instrument.
On that note, you don’t have to play at a professional level but enough to accompany yourself whilst leading songs.
As you’d be travelling around Italy with one other performer in a company car, drivers are preferred for this tour.
We will contribute up to 50€ towards the cost of arriving in the country, then whilst here, all accommodation, car, petrol, car insurance and work insurance is covered. There is a two-week paid rehearsal period in January (150€ per week) and a salary of 250€ per week whilst on tour.
The tour runs from the end of January to early June, with the two-week paid rehearsal preceding this.
