Supersonic - Giants' Chaos

Supersonic Music Projects have been designed by SCO musicians working alongside leading composers and music educators to create projects especially for school groups.  Sessions are interactive, curriculum-linked, and most of all, fun!

SCO Brass in a school workshop

SCO musicians Peter Franks, Shaun Harrold (trumpets), Harry Johnstone (French Horn), Nigel Cox (Trombone) and Craig Anderson (Tuba) have created a brand new project for primary schools. The brass quintet and pupils explore themes which are closely linked to the curriculum through music. Pupils are encouraged to think about the environment and looking after each other. Pupils also learn about the quintet's fantastic brass instruments, compose their own music and some will even have the chance to conduct!

For more details on the project, download the Giant's Chaos information sheet here.

In May 2007 the Giants' Chaos project toured around Central Scotland, and in June they visited three primary schools in Shetland. More recently they appeared as part of the Storylab festival at the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh.

If you would like this project to appear in a school near you, call SCO Education for more information now, as this talented quintet is in demand!
