The Dionysus team are all experienced educators both as instrumental teachers, coaches and outreach providers, and have taken musical projects into a wide range of communities. They explore music and communication through composition, improvisation and performance with instruments, songs and sounds, bringing a project to life through music in schools, nurseries, hospitals, prisons and care homes.
A founding ethos of The Dionysus Ensemble is bringing live music into situations where none might be present.
Since 2013, The Dionysus Ensemble have run interactive children’s concerts in three different parts of the UK.
These concerts are community projects making live music accessible to all by keeping the performances local, affordable and readily available - we're extremely grateful to local sponsorship which enables these Musical Adventures to take place.
Please see www.amusicaladventure.co.uk for further information.
During the autumn term of 2019, pupils from Wimbledon College, Donhead and St John’s Beaumont did composition workshops with us to help them to create and compose their own new music to highlight the current climate crisis. A showcase concert in October 2019 saw all of the children perform their creations in Sacred Heart Church, Wimbledon.
We were thrilled to be partnering with Jesuit Missions on this project to work with the children at all three schools to create new musical works on climate change.
