Music Workshops, Projects and Playdays

Everyone enjoys music - listening, singing and creating. We strive to provide a fun and positive learning environment where our classes and workshops inspire children to participate and join together to share in the joy of musical creation!

Music can have numerous benefits for primary school children from helping with confidence and behavioural issues to encouraging creativity and learning skills that can be used across all subjects.

Choirs

The benefits of singing in a school choir are many. The sharing, the spirit of inclusion, the forging of friendships across the year groups, the chance to perform and not feel the pressure of being the central focus as well as the natural joy of singing itself are central to music, life and schools.

We can offer a highly experienced choir leader who can either start a choir from scratch or transform an existing choir, guaranteeing breathtaking results.

Can be booked as shorter, more traditional sessions, or why not schedule a full day or two for a particular class? We’d simply pick a selection of songs on a theme or of a style and teach them throughout the day(s) culminating in a performance of solos, duets and ensembles to an invited audience. Suitable for one of more groups of 30 students it is ideal as a fun day or for a religious festival, seasonal event or summer concert.

Half a day of 45 minute workshops £170
