Description
Singing is an inclusive and economical way of combating the disintegration of communities and providing well-being of individuals. It is an intrinsically social activity, involving processes of cooperation and social coordination, fundamental values to strengthen democratic culture and civic consciousness. Considering that Citizenship is not simply learned by rhetorical processes, but by living processes, the central objective of “Coro dos Pequenos Cidadãos” is the promotion of democratic culture and civic consciousness. The specific objectives are: the development of personal and social skills; the promotion of critical thinking; the development of active participation skills; the presentation to the community of an artistic piece. In weekly work sessions, the project aim is to develop a choral singing piece resulting in the presentation, in the context of the biennials Aveiro_Síntese and Reencontros de Música Contemporânea, of the work developed.
