We were absolutely delighted to be one of the schools successful in obtaining tickets for our Year 5 children to go to the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom to watch the National Youth Orchestra perform and experience the sound of LIVE orchestral music!

The performance was designed for young people and the programme included repertoire from all genres.

During the concert our pupils gained an insight into the world of orchestral playing. They heard from the musicians themselves playing iconic solo melodies on instruments.

We were very privileged to go to this prestigious event and hope it inspired our children to make music a bigger part of their lives!

The NYO have sent through a Spotify list of the programme for the concert if you’d like to listen to the songs:
