Singers shine at the Sounds Spectacular

On Friday 15 March over 1,000 young singers filled the Butterworth Hall at the University of Warwick Arts Centre with the sound of music as they took part in ‘Sounds Spectacular; a Singing Sensation' presented by the Warwickshire Music Education Trust.

Children and young people aged 5 – 15 from schools across Warwickshire took part in a series of vocal workshops throughout the day led by singing specialists from Warwickshire Music, Ex Cathedra and the University of Warwick’s music department.

A gala concert in the evening featured a range of charismatic choirs reflecting the wonderful diversity of singing within Warwickshire with children’s choirs, school choirs, community choirs and specialist choirs all represented.

The gala concert also featured special guests Semi-Toned, Exeter University’s award winning all-male a capella group, best known for winning The Choir: Gareth’s Best in Britain and for their five-star shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
