GysmoKeys







GysmoKeys is just one of the many orchestras I perform in. Gysmokeys is a keyboard orchestra which is ran by Ruth Harrison. This ensemble started in September, 2016. This ensemble is designed for pianists and keyboard players who want to gain experience performing in an ensemble. You don't need to have done any sort of graded examination in order to play within the keyboard orchestra as the musicians range from beginner to advanced. However, it could be handy if you can read music.
Helping at Gysmokeys has been a great experience. It helps to increase my confidence as a performer and also helps me to develop as a musician. I joined Gysmokeys in September, 2019. Although I joined quite late, it has been a great experience so far. We are working towards taking an exam as an ensemble, which helps add to my development as a musician. Gysmokeys meets every Wednesday at Lynn Grove Academy from 4.15-5.15. We perform a variety of pieces from Danse Macabre to Abba's Dancing Queen.

I think this links to my creative enterprise because my whole creative enterprise is based around music. My creative business is an orchestral musician. As an orchestral musician I would be considered for opportunities, based on my experience and how well I can perform. I believe this would have a positive impact on my future and it is a great way to gain experience and skill as a musician.
