Where creating music and honouring our whakapapa come together to inspire and transform
Ceol works to encourage inclusive communities of self-confident, musically mature individuals who honour their own and each other’s cultures.
Through holistic Music Literacy education, and with knowledge of our own nga whakapapa, we believe our communities have more integrity and respect and will be more harmonious places in the future.
Imagine your child coming home every day with increasing confidence, a willingness to learn, and an ambition to try new things.
Music is not only a fun pastime and form of expression, it can have knock-on positive effects on cognitive processes in many areas no other activity can offer.
The Teachers Music Academy is where your journey to mastering the art of teaching music begins!
Whether you're an aspiring instructor or a seasoned musician looking to share your passion, we provide the tools, techniques, and support you need to become a skilled and effective music teacher.
Music is an important part of any occasion, and an event with live harp music is an event of elegance and style.
The harp creates a peaceful and calm yet uplifting atmosphere, making it perfect for a wedding, product launch, or to add that traditional touch to your special event.
“Ceol is the Gaelic word for music.
Underneath all my projects is the aim to inspire people to access intellectual/creative balance and to connect to their own whakapapa through music, with our focus being on Celtic and Scottish traditional music.”
