3. Objectives of the activity
Below is a list of some of Cantania’s objectives; however, its size and diversity of areas
means that specific values and objectives are constantly being discovered:
•
Offering the singers, teaching staff, families and professionals who take part in it an
unforgettable activity.
•
Encouraging the integration of different cultures and abilities in the audiences that
attend the concerts.
•
Ensuring that all the children in a school, without any kind of selection, are able to
do Cantania at least once during their schooling.
•
Bringing an unaccustomed audience to the region’s cultural spaces and concert
halls.
•
Giving exposure to contemporary writers and composers and introducing them
to thousands of people unfamiliar with music.
•
Giving the daily class routine the social dimension of music, reinforcing its
importance in schools and families.
•
Facilitating regular contact and exchange with music teachers from different
schools.
The scale of the work carried out, with the direct observation of each of its phases, the
assessments of the participants in the different areas of the activity and the overall
development of the project from when it began until the present, can be imagined.
Cantania wishes to be a project open to all families without family finances being an
obstacle. It aims to open up concert halls to the lay public. We therefore offer a system of
grants: help for families that cannot afford the price of concert tickets, subsidising half or
the whole price.
