PULO
The Pop Up Learners Orchestra (PULO) started in April 2024 as a one off event for my adult learners to come together and play in an orchestra with local professional musicians. The event was filmed to send as an audition tape for my entry into the RNCM but it has developed due to the members asking if I could host more! It is now a pop up project which not only supports the grade 1-5 adult musicians but also raises money for the venues we visit.
PULO 1 May '24
Clonter Opera Theatre
For the first PULO project, Clonter Opera generously donated their space. We spent the day workshopping and rehearsing and finished by filming the performances of both pieces.
​
Rep:
Rondo - Abdelazar - Purcell
Largo - New World Symphony - Dvorak.

PULO 2 (August '24)
Astbury St Mary's Church
After the success of PULO1, I decided to see if local churches would host us. Astbury St Marys was first on my list as it has been a venue for so many different concerts. The building is historic and beautiful but it was very important for me to find different acoustics for my students to experience. I was delighted when Astbury St Mary's offered to host.
​
Rep:
​Mother Goose Suite - Pavanne for Sleeping beauty - Ravel
Rosamunde - Ballet Music - Schubert
Swan Lake - Dance of the Cygnets - Tchaikovsky
