@_Tinderbox @ourdynamicearth This is a brilliant initiative, to add to all the brilliant work you are already doing to create pathways to engage young people in developing new artforms that involve music. We look forward to hearing more. #21stCenturyYouthOrchestra

[Agrigento Music @AgrigentoMusic]

Another terrific initiative aimed at expanding young musicians' experiences of what the youth orchestra can be. Opening door ways to different genres, traditions, practices and ways of being a musician. Love your work @_Tinderbox 💚 #TinderboxOrchestra #21stCenturyYouthOrchestra

"It also expands the next generation’s concept of who should be ‘allowed’ to be a composer or be on the classical music stage: perhaps this world of professional music could be for them too."

[Agrigento Music @AgrigentoMusic]

Looking forward to learning more about this @LMSlincsmusic & @Chineke4Change youth orchestra project that "opens the door to a variety of exciting approaches to traditional concepts of ‘orchestra’ & ‘genre’" #21stCenturyYouthOrchestra
