Schools
Our tailored schools programmes provide engaging and interactive musical experiences designed to enhance students' vocal abilities and appreciation for singing.
An integral part of our mission is to promote and advance public awareness of the repertoire we perform, whilst also using the power of music to engage, inspire and transform musical education. We continue to focus on reaching those who would not usually have access to choral music, specifically working with underrepresented groups within the industry.
Recognising the need for greater diversity within choral music, we are launching a pilot programme which seeks to diversify the talent pipeline of young singers entering the profession. This programme will be piloted in Leeds with the Diocese of Leeds Schools Singing Programme, and in London in partnership with the London Youth Choirs. The Sixteen will also share its expertise with amateur adult singers around the UK through a series of Choral Workshops.
In nurturing the next generation of choral practitioners and animateurs, much of our Learning and Participation programme will be supported and delivered by alumni of the Genesis Sixteen Young Artist programme.
If you would like to participate, collaborate or engage with one of our Learning and Participation events, please contact jenny@thesixteen.com.
Your donations in action
As a small arts organisation, The Sixteen is reliant on the generosity of our supporters in order to carry out our ambitious programme of work each year and fulfill our mission of bringing choral music to the widest and most diverse audience possible.
