Tue 1 July
Exeter Schools Song Festival - Global 25
The great hall £8 (£4.50 concs.)
Family (up to five tickets) £20 (£12 concs.)
The theme for this year's Exeter Schools' Song Festival is Global 25, celebrating both the diversity of Exeter and the 25th anniversary of Devon's folk arts development charity Wren Music, which oversees the annual project. Over the last three months, over five hundred young people from schools throughout the city, from community youth choirs, and from the home-educated Free Range Learners, have been working hard to learn songs from around the world. Each group has been encouraged to explore the musical culture of another country with people from their own community, whether with school students, parents, or other local people, who can share the songs and traditions of their ancestry. The concert will also feature a special guest appearance by the South African ComArts Choir.
