What's Magdala All
About?
It's About People
One-to-one coaching is given to people who are passionate
about singing, regardless of ability, age, or financial
circumstances. For some, the experience may be the
springboard to a singing career, for others the
simple joy of discovering their voice and for all
who take part, the opportunity to grow in confidence
and ambition
"It's a terrific place to grow" Geoff Bullen,
Director, RADA
It's About Striving for the Best
The Magdala Chorus offers people from all backgrounds
the experience of making music together and working
hard to achieve the highest possible musical standards.
A year-round programme of concerts in small local
venues ensures close ties with the community while
high profile performances win acclaim from national
critics and music lovers alike.
"Top marks for tuning, rhythmic precision….and
sheer verve of delivery" Opera magazine
It's About Transforming Lives
Opera Start is a school-based programme that engages
young people from the most deprived communities
in challenging and creative projects. Chorus members
and professional musicians work with teachers and
pupils to build self-belief through performance
and raise levels of aspiration.
"The whole of Magdala has arisen
out of the idea that people, if they put their mind
to it, can achieve something they didn't think was
possible". Michelle Wegwart, Magdala Director
Why Support Magdala?
Throughout my long involvement
with Magdala, I have always been impressed by the
team spirit and dedication of everyone I have worked
with there. They have their own unique way of giving
people from all backgrounds the confidence to find
their voices and express their true qualities, which
in turn enriches their lives.
Through your subscription, you
too can play a vital part in raising the funds needed
by Magdala to fulfill their artistic ambitions,
not only in bringing music and opera to the wider
community but also engaging young people in challenging
creative projects that will encourage them to raise
their sights and realise their potential.
