About Children's Concert
Helen Russell and the Express Yourself Show Tunes Choir introduce children of all ages to the joys of hearing live music in a warm, friendly and welcoming way. The children (and parents) will be encouraged to sing and dance along with the choir and play musical games. They can even dress up as their favourite character! Children of all ages are welcome, even crying babies! This is a fun musical experience for them to share with you - perfect for bonding and creating treasured memories. All ages welcome, very family friendly but no lift at St Swithun's Institute so pushchairs will need carrying up the stairs. Reserve place at: workshops@worcestermusicfestival.co.uk with a return email address, participant name and phone number or take your chances on the day!
