The Big Noise Youth Orchestra Project

Congratulations to all the participants of

The Big Noise Youth Orchestra Project

 a wonderful collaboration between

The Central Coast Conservatorium, youthconnections.com.au and
the Wyong Shire Council.

Beginning in March this year, The Big Noise Youth Orchestra a collaborative project between The Central Coast Conservatorium, not-for-profit organisation youthconnections.com.au and Wyong Shire Council offered early school leavers free music lessons on an instrument of their choice and tuition in basic composition and performance.

Starting out with no or minimal musical training, The Big Noise Youth Orchestra comprising of five youth braved the stage with their instruments on Friday, 25th June 2010 for an inaugural performance.

A highlight of Friday’s performance was an original composition entitled ‘Our Song’ accompanied by Central Coast Conservatorium Director Chris Bearman on violin and tutors David Kimpton on flute and Kim Cannon on guitar.

“In my view the root cause of all our social problems is exclusion. We must fight to ensure that a large number of people, everyone if that’s possible – have access to this wonderful world. The world of music…”

Look out for future performances by The Big Noise Youth Orchestra.
