Windrush will take you and your children on a musical voyage from the warm tropical songs of the Caribbean to a new sound and culture developing in the UK. Children will learn exciting music arranged especially for kids in English and other languages. They also get their own T-shirt designed especially for the concert. Now that's cool.
