Birmingham Symphony Hall - Primary Proms Concert

On Monday, Year 3 took the train into Birmingham to visit Symphony Hall.  We watched the Primary Proms Concert, hosted by Music For Youth.  We had a wonderful time, listening to different types of music and singing.  The performers were all very talented!







Can you remember the names of your favourite musical instruments?




What was your favourite performance?  Did the trip inspire you to become a musician?

Check out the school website to see more pictures from our trip.

Thank you to Mrs Aldred for organsing this experience for us!
