Read to the Beat with Luton Music Service

Ready to join the Summer Reading Challenge: Read to the Beat?

Have you checked out our collaboration with Luton Music Service? You can borrow a hand drum from your local Luton library and start creating your own beats. Prefer music tech? This video also includes a quick guide to help you get started.

Once you've created your performance, we'd love to see it! With permission from a parent or guardian, send your video to lutonmusicservice@luton.gov.uk or share it with us on Instagram or Facebook.

If you send us your performance, we'll share some of our favourites and you'll be entered into a prize draw to win a percussion instrument.

Need some inspiration? Check out MC Grammar or Christian Foley, then have a go at writing your own rap.

So what are you waiting for? Grab a drum, drop a beat, and get reading, rapping and creating!
