Creative Journeys 2024

Creative Journeys was a creative music programme co-produced by Sinfonia Viva, Orchestras Live, Lincolnshire Music Service and South Holland District Council.
Residents from Glen Haven, Fleet Hargate, Sezanne Walk and Spring Gardens sheltered housing communities and young musicians attending the Spalding Music Centre worked with a Sinfonia Viva creative team during April and May 2024.
They created new music inspired by the themes of water, flowers and folk stories and came together for an intergenerational performance at the South Holland Centre in Spalding on Tuesday 21 May 2024.
