Education
APOLLO5 is part of the VOCES8 Foundation, a vocal music education charity that brings the power of singing to communities around the world.
We are passionate about engaging young people through singing. We believe that the opportunity to take part in music making should be available to everyone.

It’s annual programme of education work sees APOLLO5 and the foundation’s other ensemble, VOCES8 working with over 40,000 people around the world in partnership with Music Hubs, schools and communities.

“The children realised that each of them had a crucial role to play in the performance and grew in confidence. The project has given me techniques and ways of warming up the children both when we are teaching them a song and also doing a listening exercise. It was really inspiring working with talented musicians and thinking about how we can incorporate these ideas into our practice.”
