Big Summer Wind Orchestra and Choir - London
Big Summer Wind Orchestra and Choir - London
London is hosting hundreds of musicians on 21st June as part of Make Music Day, for a huge one-off performance!
We'll be performing in Potters Fields Park, near Tower Bridge, in a wonderful musical afternoon.
Everyone is welcome to join in with our exciting concert, with any wind orchestra instrument or just your voice. No experience required, no rehearsal expected - join in and have fun!
The programme will have something for everyone - from folk song to musicals, and pop favourites to opera choruses. We'll even send performers the sheet music digitally a few weeks in advance.
Is it a while since you were part of a band or choir?
Has your instrument been sleeping in its case for years, or is your singing voice limited to the shower?
Our performance is just for you! A one-off chance to just join in and perform in concert, with no pressure or rehearsal commitments.
Join an afternoon full of fun, with hundreds of like-minded musicians who just want to get outside and make music together - sign up now!
The Big Summer Wind Orchestra and Choir is co-ordinated by the same team who deliver the Big Christmas Wind Orchestra and Choir.
Since 2012, we have been running huge ensembles with hundreds of participants, to inspire everyone into regular music making.
We are very pleased to collaborate with Making Music to arrange a really special event for Make Music Day. This international celebration of music making sees hundreds of concerts in places all around the world, from enormous concert halls to libraries, and everywhere in between. Our enormous one-off annual events are the perfect way to showcase the joys of music making and hopefully encourage more people into music making all year round.
We usually perform a range of well known music for about two hours at a high profile public location. This will include some very well known local songs, alongside classical favourites and even some big pop numbers - with all music especially selected so that everyone can join in.
Any musician is welcome, regardless of ability, and no rehearsal or preparation (other than an instrument or voice) is required. Performers who don't regularly make music in a band or choir are especially welcome. - we'll make you feel right at home!
We provide all of the sheet music in either paper or digital format, so that it is accessible to everyone - we'll also help if you'll need any adaptations e.g. large print.
