Schools' Concerts Appeal 2025

At the CBSO we are actively finding ways to connect with more communities across Birmingham and the West Midlands. Our Schools’ Concerts are an incredible way to reach young people. However, we could not build these connections without the help of generous individuals.

With your help we aim to raise £25,000 to continue delivering inspirational music provision to school children across the West Midlands.

Give today and your donation will be doubled thanks to generous support from anonymous donors!

The joy of seeing our students engage with and enjoy these kinds of music, many for the first time, was lovely.

Key Stage 3 Schools' Concert

Our Schools’ Concerts are designed to inspire children to explore the world of live music. We hope that every child in the West Midlands leaves school with a passion for music.

Each concert is created to complement the musical offer from teachers and music services, as well as being tailored to suit each different stage of education. These concerts take place on an annual basis and are BSL interpreted.

Thank you for the music!

Key Stage 1 Concert

The CBSO is committed to inspiring a lifelong appreciation of live performance. Enriching lives with music and welcoming the next generation of concert goers are two of the four major priorities that underpin our Sound of the Future fundraising campaign. Our schools’ concerts are central to this vision; they act as a crucial access point to orchestral music in the concert hall.

Absolutely fantastic time – our pupils were engaged, inspired and mesmerised by the performance.
