Start a journey of musical discovery where your students can learn and experience the fun sounds of the Orchestra, aligned with the NSW Curriculum.

Benjamin Britten’s famous Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra explores how musicians play instruments and the sounds each instrument makes. It’s an exciting journey from the highest notes to the lowest, from the bright blasts of brass to the silky shimmer of the strings, from the rumbling power of percussion to the smooth sound of the woodwinds.

You will also experience the energy and rhythm of excerpts from Leonard Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances from West Side Story, as well as the world premiere of Australian composer Bree van Reyk’s Fanfare for Solidarity, in a concert that showcases everything an orchestra has to offer.
