School Music tour to Madrid

The Spanish capital boasts a vibrant atmosphere as well as a rich musical history. Music here has been dominated by the Zarzuela, and whilst opera thrived in Barcelona, Madrid developed an orchestral tradition. A truly inspiring city, the architecture will take your breath away as you stroll down the wide boulevards through the centre and visit the local shops for some souvenirs.

Madrid has some fantastic historical venues for our groups to perform in. Choirs can perform as part of Mass in the famous cathedrals of Almudena and Iglesia Catedral del Redentor, one of the oldest Anglican churches in Madrid. Other venues include the 16th century baroque San Cayetano Church, the Santa Barbara Church and the San Justo y Pastor Church famous for its connections to the Spanish Royal Family.
