Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to lead a workshop and be part of the discussion panel at [NAME](http://www.name.org.uk/)‘s ‘Becoming a Music Teacher: The Musician as Teacher’ event at the [University of Reading](http://www.reading.ac.uk/).  This was a great day with lots of prospective music educators getting a glimpse of the world that they’re letting themselves in for.  My thanks go to James Garnett for inviting me along.

Here are the recordings from the two workshops.  In both, we used the same technique of workshopping Jessie J’s ‘Price Tag’ and then changing everything except the chord progression.
