As the new song spreads through the city’s communities and choirs it will be accompanied by moving images - cyclists crossing the city, a bus full of children singing and skateboards, prams and wheelchairs weaving their way around the park. ‘The City Sings’ will culminate in a public promenade performance in Cannon Hill Park with singers, players and the fleets of wheeled movers converging on the building to celebrate the re-launch of mac.

Visit the website during the coming year to experience the piece as it grows.  Maybe you’ll also hear snatches of it in concert halls and on street corners. Follow the project from carillon bells to bicycle bells, from single voice to massed choirs, and from the four corners of Birmingham to Canon Hill Park to celebrate the reopening of mac. Listen out for further performances during the year and join us for the Grand Finale in Cannon Hill Park in 2010.
