Explore the Orchestra: Four Elements features music that seeks to uncover the mysteries of the four elements of our natural world that have inspired scientific discovery.

So, prepare to open your mind as we go on a journey exploring music from the traditional and familiar, to the contemporary and unknown. This concert will feature a participatory song and body percussion piece for everyone to perform.

Through these pieces, the audience will learn to sing and perform with the orchestra and be introduced to all the instruments that make up a Symphony Orchestra.

To support teacher's involvement, we’re offering a free Teacher CPD session on Monday 10th November from 4:15 - 5:45 pm at Portsmouth Guildhall.

This session will provide teachers with everything they need to prepare their class for the concert, alongside valuable resources and fun teaching ideas.

We ask that at least one member of staff from each participating school attends the CPD session – who will also be involved on the day of the concert.
