SoundStorm Showcase – 4th July at The Lighthouse
Join SoundStorm’s BCP Music Hub for an evening of music showcasing the talents of young musicians from across the BCP conurbation, celebrating the end of the current phase of the SoundStorm Music Hub before it becomes part of the new, larger South Coast Music Partnership from September 2024.
Showcase promises to be exactly that, featuring specially commissioned projects alongside highlights from the more everyday work of the Hub in 2023-24, including performances by younger students early on in their musical journey through to more advanced, older players. Highlights include a specially formed, massed junior orchestra performing a brand new commission written by Kate Wright; student rock/pop bands including finalists from 2024’s BandStorm; a selection from the range of ensembles the Hub supports, playing better known pieces; extracts from our heritage-inspired ‘Poole Voyages’ project developed in partnership with Bournemouth Symphony; two massed choral commissions, including a suite of new songs written by the young participants in a new Creative Choir, working with Bath Philharmonia Creative Learning team – plus much more.





Around 300 young musicians and singers will perform alongside some 30 professional players, including musicians from BSO, Bath Philharmonia and the SoundStorm Hub team. We’re hoping the concert will inspire more young musicians to explore the range of musical opportunities on offer.
