Through our innovative and developmental approach Orchestras Live has become a leader in the sector. We collaborate with local, regional and national organisations to energise and shape orchestral programmes, prioritising the needs and interests of audiences and participants. We are motivated by the knowledge that there is much still to be done to engage new audiences, break down social, economic and demographic barriers to access and support the development of an orchestral profession that reflects the diversity of today’s society.

We work in places which have suffered under-investment for many years, including rural and coastal areas. Our projects can take place in a wide range of community settings including schools, care homes, arts venues, village/community halls, libraries, outdoors and online. Our programme of activity involves work in the areas of community development, health and wellbeing, children and young people and workforce development, ensuring everyone has access to and can enjoy the benefits of live orchestral music, regardless of their background.

Whilst we are proud of the steps we have taken with our partners we know that there is much still to be done to engage new audiences, break down social, economic and demographic barriers to access and support the development of an orchestral profession that reflects the diversity of today’s society.
