“Two of my 6 Form students had never been, and they got to listen
th
to their set work study (the Rite of Spring) in its full-blown glory.

This schools’ programme is so valuable to us as teachers, and the
students really get so much out of it.”

Peter Garden, Executive Director Performance and Learning said, ”
We are delighted to be able to provide free tickets to our local
students and provide much needed resource to teachers. Live

performances are deeply inspiring for young people and we hope
these experiences can ignite a passion for music that stays with
them throughout their lives.

“We are committed to making classical music accessible to all, and

this initiative is a testament to that commitment. By offering free
tickets to Liverpool’s secondary schools, we aim to inspire the next
generation of music enthusiasts and provide students with a unique
and enriching cultural experience.”
