Young Performers' Day
[16] Voices from Primary Schools

Marden House: 12.15pm lunchtime recital
Admission: £3 (Patrons £1)

To start the ‘Young Musicians Day' of the Festival, children from the Primary Schools of Calne and the surrounding district will entertain you as individual Schools and as a Mass Choir. One of the amazing things about singing is that it unites people. Come and listen to the magic of young primary school singers.
