About us

We are not a school like any other school, nor are we just a music or choir school. The words ‘renaissance’, ‘new way of thinking’ and ‘fresh without reinventing the wheel’ come to mind when referring to the Cape’s only choral academy.

Getting to know the Cape’s only choral academy

Our academic approach

At the Cape Choral Academy, the academic programme is central to the education of our learners, but it is not the only intellectual stimulus. Our Academic Coordinator (Head of Academics) drives and manages the academic programme. Dr. Basson also leads our academic facilitators (student interns) to be more than just teachers. Our aim is to develop true educators that will uplift the next generation of changemakers..

Our approach to music

We do not see music as a nice to have luxury or form of entertainment but rather as a vital component of education. We believe that the impact of music on the cognitive development of young people enhances the child’s brain function by stimulating creative (right side of the brain) as well as logical (left side of the brain) patterns of thought which is especially needed for problem solving in an ever changing world.
