The Junior Orchestra is open to all players of Strings, Brass, Woodwind and Percussion and will develop instrumental skills and encourage general musicianship skills through-out the year, as well as develop a good social network of like-minded musicians. Rhythm reading exercises will be amongst the warm-ups, and a variety of pieces from different genres and styles including 'Reggae Hits Town', 'Yellow Bird', The Bare Necessities', 'The Blue Danube' and 'Yesterday' will be played in rehearsals.
Musicians will have the opportunity to participate in events such as school concerts, celebrations, ‘Go West’ Festival, and wider community events.
Pupil music leaders will be supporting music teachers in running this club.
