What Students Will Do

Across two full days, students will:

    Option 1: Perform a classic Christmas song from our list:

    Option 2: Take a popular non-Christmas song and transform it into a Christmas-themed version with new lyrics

    Option 3: Write an original Christmas song from scratch

  • Rehearse, arrange, and prepare their song with guidance from professional tutors

  • Record their music using multi-track recording

  • Film a fully produced music video complete with lighting and effects

What Parents Say About Our Courses

A. Busby

“As always the Summer Band Course was a phenomenal success. Seeing the young people coming together, clearly enjoying themselves and giving such accomplished performances after such a short time together always blows me away. This year was the best yet. Thank you so much all at Good Vibes, this is such a great experience.”
