BSO Set Works Live

Date: Friday 13 November 2026 11:00

The Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra (BSO) invites GCSE and BTEC music students to experience their set works brought to life.

Presented by Patrick Bailey, an ensemble of BSO musicians will perform four of the set works studied on these courses, offering students a deeper, more dynamic understanding of the music.

In the second half of the concert, the ensemble will perform a new composition by Patrick Bailey, which incorporates ideas contributed by the schools attending – an exciting opportunity for students to hear their creativity included in a professional performance.
