Keeping Orchestras Engaged, Peer-Sharing Session | Video, Podcast & Resources
On Thursday, 4 February 2021, we hosted a peer-sharing session on keeping orchestras engaged over Zoom.
We heard from Paula Klein of Ulster Youth Orchestra, Joanna Crooks & Nicole Hudon from St Agnes’ Community Centre for Music and the Arts in Dublin, Sinéad Hayes from Athenry Music School Sinfonietta and Sophie Butler from ConCorda Chamber Music Course for Strings – all of whom have had very successful online engagement this year.
We also invited informal contributions from a number of other members and had an open discussion and sharing session.
Below are a number of resources, a video of the session and also a podcast for easy listening.
