Primary Ensemble Project: PRESTO Players in the NCC
What is the PRIMARY ENSEMBLE PROJECT?
The National Concert Hall and the Royal Irish Academy of Music (RIAM) created an exciting and innovative programme for primary schools with orchestras. Aimed at developing key areas of early ensemble playing in a vibrant and holistic programme, RIAM specialist tutors visited schools in late 2022 and early 2023 to lead four engaging and participative workshops.
During these workshops, the tutors helped the schools’ young musicians to develop aural and technical skills alongside ensemble performance and improvisation techniques.
St. Ultans PRESTO Players perform in the National Concert Hall
Today, following these workshops, the orchestras from different schools met in the National Concert Hall to play with the other participating schools. It was an amazing opportunity for the children to perform on the Main Stage of the National Concert Hall.
