Local youngsters to choose music for Royal Philharmonic Orchestra concert at Scunthorpe Baths Hall
The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will deliver an education project that will see local children choose music for a concert to be performed by the famous group at the Scunthorpe Baths Hall - as part of the First Time Live project.
Children aged between 11 and 15 will gain experience of working with classical music in a new way by planning, programming and presenting a concert.

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will be performing at the Scunthorpe Baths Hall
Thirty participants from six local schools were selected to take part and will work with the Orchestra over three weekends between January and March, and will be mentored in the interim through a secure, online social-learning forum called Makewaves.
The project will culminate in a 75-minute concert at the Baths, in Doncaster Road, which will be performed to more than 2,000 local children from Key Stage 2 and 3 and will include a range of music including Mozart’s Horn Concerto No.4 and film music from Pirates of the Caribbean, as well as the music the children have chosen themselves.

Phil Woods, who plays in the horn section of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and helped to lead the project said; " am so inspired to work with children who love music and its surrounding activities.
