Be Hear Now

Be Hear Now is our relaxed music workshop programme, for children and young people with special educational needs and their families.

Explore music, creativity and movement in these wonderful sessions, led by Beth Bishop, and featuring musicians from the Live Music Now team.

This session is a quiet, calmer sensory session, with a smaller group. It is particularly suited for young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities and their families.

This month’s session features Ben Sayah, a guitarist and singer born in France and based in Manchester. He draws inspiration from bluegrass guitarists such as Billy Strings and fuses it with the influence he draws from progressive rock and metal. Ben is a member of folk band, Kabantu with whom he has performed at Lucerne Festival, Luxembourg Philharmonie, The Bridgewater Hall, TedX, Cadogan Hall and Shropshire, Orkney, Shetland and Cambridge Folk Festivals. Alongside his work with Kabantu, Ben is a resident musician at Alder Hey Children’s hospital and is currently studying a Masters in Music therapy to further further his professional development as a music practitioner.
