What we can do for schools

 

Because we meet during the school day, we offer local schools the

opportunity to come and see a full orchestra in rehearsal with no charge at the Henley Community Centre .The format of the session can be discussed with the class teacher involved prior to the visit so that we can shape the rehearsal to the school needs as much as possible.

In the past the conductor has first introduced the various instruments individually and then has demonstrated the sounds of the instrumental groups (strings, woodwind, brass and percussion) by playing a section of a work. The orchestra then plays a complete piece thus  showing how the groups of instruments sound together.
