FREE - ORCHESTRA WORKSHOP EXTRAVAGANZA

• Are you currently attending ANY of the Hinckley and Bosworth area schools?
• Are you currently looking to challenge yourself with a new exciting musical experience?
• Are you ready to take your musical skills to the next level?
• Would you like to meet, and play fun music, alongside other young people like yourself?

On Friday 17th January 2025 we are holding a special after school 'Orchestral Workshop Extravaganza' at St Martins Catholic Voluntary Academy, Stoke Golding, Nuneaton, CV13 6HT for all orchestral instrumentalists from Grade 1 upwards.

We are offering this special opportunity to all talented young musicians in the Hinckley and Bosworth Areas.

The workshop extravaganza will be led by Sam Goldsworthy, the conductor of the Hinckley Area Schools Orchestra supported by volunteer teachers in the area. Extra support from specialist teachers will be present to help engage the learning of the session. All the teaching staff are fully DBS checked.

The Hinckley Area Schools Orchestra, in its previous guise, has played in some fantastic venues over the years, such as Bedworth Civic Hall, Proms in the Park, Belvoir Castle, The Birmingham Symphony Hall, The Royal Festival Hall, and most memorable of all performing the Finale of the Schools Proms to a packed Royal Albert Hall in 2007.

Plan for the Orchestra workshop:

Your young musician will be playing the ever popular 'Trepak.' The rehearsal will give them the chance to practice with help from specialist teachers, and later to show off some of what they've been learning in an informal performance situation. This is an excellent and enjoyable opportunity for your child to develop their skills playing alongside other young musicians in the local area as part of an ensemble.

The session will run as follows:
3.45pm Registration onwards
4.00pm – 5.30pm Rehearsal (We will have a short break in the rehearsal biscuits provided)

Parent/carers are invited to stay for the session or you can drop your young musician off and come back 15 minutes towards the end for a short presentation.
Please bring your own music stand named if you have one.

If you are interested in coming along to the 'Orchestra Workshop Extravaganza' please register for your place by emailing one of us directly:
