About Guri Santa Marcelina

Guri Santa Marcelina was launched in 2008 and its goal is to offer music education and socio-cultural inclusion to children and adolescents in the Metropolitan area of the city of Sao Paulo. Through quality music education integrated with social service support, the Program offers an opportunity of growth and social inclusion to students between the ages of 6-18 years.

Through playful activities and practice, children will take their very first steps into the programme at the age of six. At the age of eight, children may join the Children’s Choir, the youngest ensemble within Guri’s Children and Youth Groups.

Right after their initiation, sequel programmes are offered for boys and girls to study singing or instruments, further to choir, with collective classes, group practice and music theory. Those who want to deepen their artistic skills may apply to Children and Youth Groups where they experience a thorough musical life.
