Stick Control

Poynton High School

Head of Music: Mrs R.Thomas

Stick Control was formed in Spring 2005. There are around 15 members who are all GCSE music students.

Performances include school concerts and the High Peak Fair, Buxton.

In the near future they are starting a project with the Northern Chamber Orchestra (NCO) which has the aim of fusing together orchestral and samba music. It will be a 5 week project sponsored by www.amplifier.org.uk. The facilitator will write the beginning and the end of the piece of music and the students will be writing all the remaining parts of the piece in order to develop their compositional skills as well as their musical skills.

The band meet regularly to develop their musical and performance skills. Band members are also encouraged to lead the band.
