Mother Goose and Friends



This spring, we're working with two schools in Birmingham to explore one of the pieces from our lunchtime concert series which has just finished touring around venues in Birmingham, Norwich and Cambridge, amongst others.

Taking Ravel's exquisite Mother Goose suite, scored innovatively for wind quintet with piano, we'll be finding crumbs with little Tom Thumb, marvelling at the Empress of the Pagodas and passing through the glorious Faery Garden in workshops with Years 4-6.

The interactive workshops will help schoolchildren bring to life music they have seen on the stage, working with musicians at first hand to compose their own pieces and even perform to a real live audience!



If you are interested in bringing a group of children to any of our concerts, or in workshops designed around them, do get in touch by contacting creativeintern@brittensinfonia.co.uk
