CMPSR, or “Composer” is a revolutionary music controller that makes playing an instrument fun, accessible and promotes musical development in disabled children and adults. It’s designed to allow non-specialist teachers to deliver inclusive, easy-to-follow music activities and lessons. It’s suitable for all children, making it a complete music-making solution for the whole classroom.

It features a robust, joystick-controlled, gaming-style design which makes playing music easy and intriguing for a wide variety of players. It’s also made with user-friendly video gaming hardware and played with simple finger gestures, so no previous musical experience is needed. The CMPSR music controller gives everyone the opportunity to create their own sound.

Developed through extensive work in education and inclusion, CMPSR and Arrownotes are engaging and immediately rewarding so anyone can play, compose and perform literally in minutes, regardless of their levels of prior music experience. Perfect for digital inclusion programmes and supporting the government’s National Plan for Music Education.

I have been very much enjoying using Andy’s excellent book and trying out some of the ideas in it.

The three different gong sizes punctuate the main patterns discretely, highlighting whereabouts in the music the group is based on the pitch played.

The drum arrived safely at school and staff were delighted with it!

You probably already have students who are learning Drum Kit and Percussion and this pack is ideal for setting up a drumming group so that they can enjoy the benefits of ensemble playing. Piano and Keyboard players love it too.

Andy Gleadhill

I will be in touch in the future to get more equipment as we have been really impressed with the service we get from Drums for Schools.
