About this event
Share in the joy of French folk music and dance from this trio of musicians!
Cri du Canard are a French folk trio, currently based in the North of England.
With passion and experience coming out of their ears, these three highly regarded musicians throw themselves into their work, performing and leading workshops across the UK and EU with expertise, humour, and panache.
Cri du Canard are:
- Grace Smith – Violon
- Sam Partridge – Flûte traversiere en bois
- Dave Grat – Accordéon diatonique
Expect to be transported to the beating musical heart of France, with an experience as nourishing for the soul as a good bowl of boeuf bourguignon!
This event is open to school groups and home educating families and has been designed with KS2 children in mind, although is suitable for all primary aged children.
This concert will include live BSL interpretation.

Relaxed setting
All our schools events take place in a relaxed environment, and have the following features:
- There’ll be lower volume levels throughout the event
- Our spaces have consistent lighting, with low level auditorium lights on throughout
- Our musicians and facilitators have relaxed attitude to noise and moving around the space
- A quiet, chill out space will be available should you need a break
- Our younger visitors can find a busy venue and loud musical activities quite overwhelming. A limited number of ear defenders are available from the Box Office – by the main entrance on Albert Road. See us as early as possible to secure a pair.
