The brief was to have a good storyline, a nice mix of styles for the pupils to perform, plenty of people singing, good chorus parts, interesting orchestral parts that are differentiated in grade to include all year groups.http://www.keironanderson.co.uk/article.php?id=117http://www.keironanderson.co.uk/article.php?id=117Mon, 28 Nov 20112011 has been a very good year for NSWO. At the end of June I was considering ways to improve the group even more and the opportunity to make a recording at BBC Manchester was the perfect catalyst to inspire the orchestra to greater heights.http://www.keironanderson.co.uk/article.php?id=1http://www.keironanderson.co.uk/article.php?id=1Wed, 25 Jan 2012Riffilicious, a short piece based on polyphonic riffs and syncopated rhythms has just been completed for Woodwind Orchestra for the Playday at the RNCM on Feb 4th.
