Another wonderful weekend with the foundation team
Last weekend, we visited Edinburgh for the 1st time! On Sat, the Intermediate & Advanced Orchestras, nearly 200 young people, came together to work on a brand new piece for mass strings – Enigma-Bolero arr. @TheAyoubSisters. Here’s a little clip from the final sharing.🎻⭐️
