Education
Dieci have an exciting and innovative education programme that is designed to inspire and engage, making singing and classical music a live and accessible experience for all. The interactive workshops cater for people of all ages and abilities and the team of experienced practitioners can tailor each session to suit individual needs and circumstances. The workshops are led by all eight singers in Dieci who have a wealth of teaching experience amongst them, providing a support system that encourages confidence and motivates participation in quality music making.The collaborative nature of the workshops is ideal for building confidence, self-expression, teamwork and leadership qualities as well as providing a sense of ownership and achievement through the music created.
