Orchestral Instruments - London Symphony Orchestra

London Symphony Orchestra : Teacher Notes

This is a super amazing website because it allows students to see inside the orchestra.  I love that it lets them explore up close, actually see musicians playing, and hear great music at the same time.  Some kids might just stay on the site because they like how interactive it is.  Others might get hooked into the music or the whole production of it all.  No matter what, I like that kids can explore and learn more about orchestras and see INSIDE the group!

What I share with kids:

The London Symphony Orchestra is one of the most prestigious orchestras in the whole world.  On this interactive website you can see them play a famous piece called "Symphony Fantastique" by a composer named Berlioz.  You'll get to see four videos from inside the orchestra.  If you want to change a view just click on one of the four boxes and you'll be able to see a different section of the orchestra or a different view of the conductor and instrumentalists.
