A film, an award and Tasmin Little - Sistema England news

In Harmony Opera North

A lovely new film has been released by Sistema England, talking about why they support the In Harmony Lambeth project. (You can see the video at the end of this article after the break). The film talks to people involved with the project including founder Julian Lloyd Webber, along with students and pupils as well as eavesdropping on rehearsals. Another initiative, In Harmony Opera North based in Leeds, has won 'Best Classical Music Education Initiative' at the Music Teacher Awards for Excellence. 

And in Norwich on 28 February, violinist Tasmin Little will be giving workshops to one of Sistema in Norwich's participant schools as well as giving a recital in the evening in support of Sistema in Norwich. The concert is being held at the John Innes Centre in Norwich from 7pm on Friday 28 February 2014. Tickets are available from Prelude Records, 25b St Giles St, Norwich NR2 1JN Tel:01603 628319. Tickets are priced at £15 with complimentary glass of wine. All proceeds will go to Sistema in Norwich.
