We are delighted to announce our next inclusive weekend of symphonic music making with Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.

Musicians of all ages are invited to take part in an extraordinary weekend playing two colourful and exciting pieces:

  • A London Symphony (1st movement) – Vaughan Williams
  • Pirates of the Caribbean – Klaus Badelt arr. Ted Ricketts

Bringing together talented amateur players and National Open Youth Orchestra (NOYO) musicians, we are thrilled to be coming back for a second year.

You will be coached by BSO musicians, conducted by our very own CEO Dougie Scarfe, and the weekend finishes with an informal sharing for friends, family and supporters.
