The core of the work undertaken
by the group is based around an hour long concert. At
Key Stages 1 and 2 there are themed concerts that can
hold the attention of the youngest children while at
Secondary level a program of specifically composed and
arranged music is a prelude to composition based
workshops, concluding in a presentation of work.
‘Exciting, inspirational and fun’
"It
was fantastic! What can I say - I was quite choked at
the end of the performance. All the school community
came, everyone involved - The performance was very
spiritual - to me this is what music is about!!!"
The Mini BSO have been working
together as an ensemble for over ten years. The
musicians involved have a vast amount of experience in
schools with both curriculum linked and creative
composition projects. Other activities include work in
Special Schools, Teacher Training and community
projects. The musicians have undertaken a variety of
training initiatives and two of the group have gained
an MA in Music Education. Please browse the site to see
if we can provide you with a musical experience that is
exciting, informative and fun!
