BBC Ten Pieces I: Meet a Player

Building on the success BBC Music's ongoing Ten Pieces project, the Errol Flynn Filmhouse and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra are giving schools a second chance to view the inspirational primary film, which features stunning footage of a real orchestra performing the year one selection of orchestral music, representing a wide range of styles and eras relevant to the music curriculum. Each piece is introduced by celebrity presenters known to the age group, using an engaging mix of live action and animation.

Prior to the screening, you and your students will have the opportunity to meet a member of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, listen to them perform extracts of some of the Ten Pieces repertoire and ask questions about what it is really like being an orchestral musician.
