Digital Touring Network: Streamed Performances
Our digital programme with AMP Music offers streamed orchestral performances with accompanying classroom music resources. The orchestral performances are designed to introduce young people to the orchestra and increase exploration of music within the classroom. Each offer is accompanied by a resource pack containing various musical and cross-curricula activities that support teachers in delivering music learning.
