Our Hallé Music and Heritage workshop was a fantastic experience. We learned a lot about famous Sir Charles Hallé, the founder of the orchestra.

We looked at original music notation and concert programmes from the Hallé archive, as they were used by the orchestra back in the early 1900’s.

We got to know about famous conductors who worked with the Hallé orchestra over the last century.

And we had our own go, being a conductor in a fun team game of musical statues along with another original recording of a Hallé Orchestra performance.

What a lovely way to learn about local music history!
