Please register your interest to take part in our Christmas Celebration and Southampton Guildhall on Thursday 5th December 2024!  This is suitable for KS1 & KS2 pupils either your choir or a class from your setting.  This event is now fully booked but if you would like to be put on a reserve list, please email lynn.beckwith@southampton.gov.uk

Details:

Jo Downs is writing a new Christmas songbook and narrative script for this event loosely based on the nativity story with three original songs for KS1 and three original songs for KS2 spanning a variety of styles and genres!  Schools will also be offered the opportunity to perform as a solo group outside of the massed singing or participate in the narrative sections but this is very much voluntary.  On the day we will also be joined by Southampton Youth Wind Band for the concert.

Schools will be offered workshops to introduce the songbook and digital resources to support you with learning them in advance of the concert. Resources will be ready by the end of September/beginning of October.  Timings on the day are still tbc but we will be in touch with everyone to finalise this with your input.

Spaces will be limited to up to 150 KS1 and up to 150 KS2 students for the event in total, which will be allocated on a first come first served basis with an initial limit of around 30 pupils from your school for each half of the concert but we may be able to offer more spaces depending on sign up though so this is not set in stone.

Please indicate on the form how many you would like to bring or use the form to explain this and we will contact you to confirm what's possible.  Any questions please email nia@siowmusic.org but if in doubt fill in the form and we will get back to you with questions if anything doesn't make sense.
