Welcome to Romany Wood - A Musical for Children

 
Romany Wood is a 40 minute classical work for children's voices, narrator and orchestra, with text by David Carr and music by David Gaukroger. The piece is designed to appeal to children aged 7-13 and has been performed to great acclaim in concert halls, cathedrals and schools around the UK.

If you are:

  • a school or school class
  • a county music service
  • a church
  • a choral society
  • an orchestral society

The Romany Wood Charitable Trust (Registered Charity Number 1115147) will provide for free all the materials to rehearse and perform Romany Wood.

Romany Wood can be performed with piano accompaniment, with live Orchestra, or by using orchestral backing tracks made by the Orchestra of Trinity College of Music.

You can find out more in ‘How to Take Part’. Participants are asked to make a donation from profits made at their concert(s) to the Romany Wood Charitable Trust. The trust uses the money to develop classical music amongst young people and makes donations to children’s charities that operate in the UK and overseas.

A recording of Romany Wood, made by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the New London Children’s Choir with Michael Maloney narrating is available. Details on how to obtain CDs at preferential rates are found in the restricted part of this site.
