Cushion Concerts
20 October 2024, 12:00pm - 12:45pm
A fun exploration of music and words, the human voice and piano, singing and playing for all the family. The well-established Cushion Concerts at the Jacqueline du Pré Music Building introduce a wide variety of music and instruments to children and their families, and we are delighted to partner with them again. This year's event has a spooky Halloween theme... remember to bring a cushion, and your best singing voice!
Recommended for families with children over 5.
