Agenda

In Welcome to the Orchestra: the Eredivisie, you will discover that a symphony orchestra is super similar to a football team! Think for example: the role of the conductor/coach, not playing along but determining a lot. And how exciting is it to take a penalty shot/play a solo? In this interactive performance, pupils will compose for themselves and learn all about the symphony orchestra and (classical) music.

Location: NedPhO dome, Amsterdam
