Schools Concert

Step into the wonderful world of opera and classical music with Welsh National Opera. 

This free and inspiring Schools Concert offers a live orchestral experience for pupils in year 3 - 7 and is designed to support the National Music Curriculum in Wales and England.

Aimed to inspire and increase love of music and creativity, students will be encouraged to use their voices to sing in different ranges and dynamics, clap rhythms, stamp along to different time signatures and develop an understanding of the history of music.

 Fun, lively and engaging, expect popular hits and less familiar pieces from opera, film, and television, bought to life by the world class WNO Orchestra and a group of sensational soloists. The perfect opportunity to hear and enjoy live music, up close and personal, in a relaxed setting.
