Involving children in our concerts

Another essential component of each Festival is our Family Concert which in 2012 will be presented by clarinettist Emma Johnson MBE.

Schools from around the region will perform in a specially arranged version of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. We look forward to seeing the next generation of budding clarinet players on stage with Emma Johnson at the Coronation Hall!

Through our Family Concert the Festival's profile has increased amongst young people, families and schools, giving us a firm foundation from which to build our education work in the future.
