Synfonia's new mission and a new on-line resource

Synfonia is a relatively new charity that has two parallel missions, to take classical music into schools, working with children of all ages to inspire them within a familiar setting, and to provide vocational training for young orchestral musicians taking the next steps in their careers. 

This Summer has seen Synfonia's first concerts (in a Primary School in Leyton), but they have also been busy with on-line resources. Now there is a composer timeline on their website, and a composer map. This latter is a rather engaging way of exploring composers and their music via their places of birth and places they are strongly associated with, do give it a sample.
