​"Bringing children together through the Arts"
What's Singing Willows?
Born as a bilingual illustrated musical book, Singing Willows has evolved into a multidisciplinary arts project combining original music, live performance, and visual storytelling for children aged 5+.
Both on stage and on the page, Singing Willows celebrates creativity, imagination, and the beauty of bilingual expression.
​
The current book and music are available online, inviting readers and families to bring the world of Singing Willows home!
Available on Amazon in many countries worldwide!
Meet the author
Alexandra Borghino — the creative director, author, singer, and illustrator behind Singing Willows — founded the project in the summer of 2021.
​
As a multidisciplinary artist based in Scotland, Alexandra works across illustration, songwriting, and children’s theatre, creating imaginative worlds where stories, music, and art come together to spark curiosity and connection in both French and English.
​
Since its launch, Singing Willows has been performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Music Encounter Edinburgh, and the Institut Français d’Écosse, among others.
​
Alexandra is currently developing the sequel to the Singing Willows musical show, an inclusive musical theatre production featuring British Sign Language (BSL) and accessible storytelling, continuing her mission to make the arts open to all children.
