The Schools Concert is the culmination of a creative project with local primary schools

during which the children help create a piece that they perform during the Festival. St Paul’s School are involved in workshops in the schools in advance of the school choirs all coming together for this concert. The festival theme is celebrated, with our annual festival commission, Roots and Resonance composed by Mark Wilderspin. Songs inspired by roots (both literal and figurative!) bring together this wonderful evening celebrating our Young Talent in Barnes.
