Ensemble Reza tour Crawley Schools - Film highlights
“thank you for the experience you gave our children today. It was the first time many of them had seen instruments being played ‘live’ and the interaction and enjoyment that both you and your team provided will stay with the children for a lifetime. ”
“Ensemble Reza came to Manor Green College and it was amazing! Our young people loved it, some danced, some riffed ... they were incredibly professional, engaging and filled our afternoon with music and joy.”
This is a short film of Ensemble Reza's first day touring Primary Schools in Crawley in June 2021 with a programme of music from around the world arranged and composed by Anna Cooper and performed by the Ensemble Reza sextet.
