Rushcliffe Sings! – May/June 2014

A Gifted and Talented project involving a host of primary schools in the Rushcliffe area. Pupils came together for an introductory session with Alex Patterson on songs based on the theme of ‘working together and communities’. Pupils were then able to practice the songs at home before coming together again at Heymann Primary School for a sharing event.  

Ginormous Choir – June 2013

Our first Ginormous Choir event featuring our youth animateur Helen Hayes and over 400 Rainbows, Brownies and Girl Guides at Nottingham’s Albert Hall. Music and CDs were sent out beforehand so children could rehearse in their own time before coming together for a workshop before a rousing concert to family and friends.

‘The day was fantastic and a big thank you to everyone at Music for Everyone for all their hard work in making the day such a success! Everyone had a great time!’

‘We had an awesome day, it all came together in the end and sounded fantastic!’

Voices 2011 – May/June 2011

Singing animateurs from Music for Everyone lead two types of workshops, one especially designed for boys and one especially designed for girls, in six primary schools in the West Bridgford and Wilford area for children in school years 3 – 6. The Voices 2011 project culminated in two wonderful concerts where over 300 children from all of the schools came together at the Emmanuel School, West Bridgford to perform songs from well-known musicals Annie and Oliver to their friends and families. 

‘Really enjoyable, the boys were particularly enthused and produced a great sound’  – Jesse Gray Primary School

‘The children enjoyed singing as part of a choir. They loved the workshops and benefited from the experience of a concert…I would like to run a choir at school now!’  – St Patricks Primary School

 

Bridging the Gap – September 2009 to March 2011

Bridging the Gap was a project managed and delivered by Music for Everyone, and funded by Youth Music. The aims of the project were 3 fold. First, to aid the transition from Primary to Secondary school. Secondly, to bridge the gap between West Bridgford and surrounding areas, and finally to help boys sing through their changing voice.

‘A good mixture of listening, singing, actions etc. Very interactive and enjoyable for all’ – Lady Bay Primary School.

‘We really enjoyed the session. You made it fun, interesting and relevant’ – Farnborough School
