Coventry Music is offering up a brand-new cantata for Coventry’s children and young people to support the development of singing in schools and provide exciting large-scale performance opportunities at prominent city venues.
This musical work is brand new and has been written by the Stannard & Thompson team that brought us the Cultural Cantata as part of our contribution to the City of Culture.
This cantata is topical and designed to engage young minds and the music is challenging! A band of students/staff will accompany the choirs.
There is a range of associated curriculum activities to enhance the cantata and there will be opportunities to share work across the city.
