046: Music and Drama Education Expo Manchester 2017

Recorded during my visit to the Music and Drama Education Expo in Manchester 2017 I learn to play the spoons! I talk to Orchestras For All about how you can create an ensemble and perform at regional and national events. I learn about Friday Afternoons a singing project from Snape Maltings that started with songs written by Benjamin Britten, Musicals suitable to perform in your school, Nuvo musical instruments and Unistage for all your performing space needs.   To book tickets for 2018 and find out full details of the Music and Drama Education Expo http://musicanddramaeducationexpo.co.uk   Orchestras for All has a big vision: music without boundaries.
