The ‘Logic in Libraries’ project is enabling highly talented musicians free access to premium music production tools on high-specification iMacs at Coombes Croft Library, Marcus Garvey Library and St Ann’s Library.
Cabinet Members Cllr Zena Brabazon (Children, Schools and Families) and Cllr Emily Arkell (Culture and Leisure) joined the council’s head of the Haringey Music Service, Daniel Earley, and Director of Culture and Communities, Kenneth Olumuyiwa Tharp CBE, for Monday’s launch event at Marcus Garvey Library.
They were treated to sample showcases of some American rap and Caribbean calypso music created by Gladesmore Community School pupils Mikel and Raiyez respectively.
Following on from the successful rollout of digital hybrid pianos across our library provision last year, this project is another example of the collaborative work between Haringey Libraries and the Haringey Music Service to provide beneficial facilities and services for young people.
Haringey Music Service would like to thank the Haringey Education Partnership (HEP) and the local charity Horizons for their support in funding this initiative.
To book a music production session at Coombes Croft Library, Marcus Garvey Library or St Ann’s Library, please visit our Libraries pages.
To get logged on, residents are advised to bring their library cards to the information desk, where they can also borrow headphones.
Any work should also be backed up on a USB stick before you log off from the computer.
