A History of Sound is our flagship education project 2023 – 2024. We have created a show, workshop & resources pack to support KS2 children and teachers on their musical journeys!
MAY 2023 UPDATE
Agents Paul and Jonny are working hard on our script, while agent Lizzy is cooking up all sorts of design magic! Meanwhile Agents Gabriella, Oskar and Betty have been out in the field recording, playing, singing, composing, and more…
We are all so excited to meet again for rehearsals and our first in-school workshops at Ashmead School in Aylesbury this Summer Term. Stay tuned for news about our Autumn Term workshops in High Wycombe, Slough and Brent.
This project is made possible through the kind support of our individual donors, the Rothschild Foundation and The Nugée Foundation. Thank you for your generosity! If you’d like to donate, it’s never too late…
ARE YOU A TEACHER?
If so, please get in touch! We’re keen to perform at as many schools as possible in the coming months and years. We are particularly interested in hearing from primary schools with limited or no music provision in place. Our general manager Paula would be very happy to tell you more about the format of the performance, workshop and teaching resource.
JANUARY 2023 UPDATE
