Small Sounds is Newcastle Cathedral’s lively, welcoming music-making group for children aged 0–5 and their grown-ups.

Join us every Tuesday morning during term time, 10:15–10:45am, for a joyful introduction to music. These FREE, interactive sessions are specially designed for babies, toddlers and preschoolers, and are generously funded by the Cathedral Music Trust.

Led by trained session leaders in the stunning main space of the Cathedral, Small Sounds is open to families of all backgrounds and faiths.

To help us prepare for your first visit, we ask grown-ups to register online or call TicketSource in advance. (Adult supervision is always required for children attending Small Sounds.) Please note: You only need to book in advance ahead of the first session you plan to attend.

Alongside Small Sounds, we also run weekly after-school music programmes during term time:
  • Mini ChoriStarters – for children in Reception and Year 1
  • ChoriStarters – for children in Year 2
If your child would like to join either of these groups, please email [email protected] for more information.
