A Special Interactive Program for Grades K-6
CONCORA-to-Go is Connecticut's only in-school cultural arts program that teaches children
songs from all over the world.
CONCORA-to-Go's program of multi-cultural, a cappella singing takes students in grades K-6
on a musical journey across the globe. Through the use of flashcards and fast-paced question-and-answer
periods, we interact with the kids, reinforcing educational concepts in music, geography,
history, and math.
Our goal is to allow children to open up to new cultures, and to begin thinking about singing
as something they themselves can enjoy on many levels, today and for the rest of their lives.
Special Features
- We are more than willing to work with teachers to tailor the program to your
curriculum. Studying Asia? - We can focus on Asian music and how it differs from Western
sounds the children are used to. Art classes studying Impressionism? – Learn how
the movement influenced choral music, too.
- For the month of December, we offer a Holiday Program, encompassing songs
from many
religious traditions.
- February brings Black History Month, when we are available to present music
from Africa and
the African-American experience.
