Edexcel AoS4 Fusions: teaching and learning ideas

In this resource, we’ll look at two works in Edexcel’s GCSE AoS4, ‘Fusions’, and explore teaching and learning ideas. We’ll go deep into the harmony of Esperanza Spalding’s ‘Samba em prelúdio’, and discuss creating a weekly ‘jam session’ with your students. Looking at Afro Celt Sound System’s ‘Release’, we’ll look at DAW-based activities, and investigate how to ensure students understand the ‘fusion’ aspects of these works.
