Calling all amateur musicians in East London
Come and participate in our second Water City Festival Orchestra in a Weekend.
Play alongside some truly inspirational players including our student music mentors and
musicians from the Royal Opera House Orchestra and the Grand Union Orchestra.
The project takes place in the unique setting of Trinity Buoy Wharf on the banks of the Thames
from Friday 1 to Sunday 3 April 2011 with a string sectional on Sunday 20 March (2.00-5.00pm).
Enjoy a Feast of Music
