A classical music, dance and poetry collaboration performed at The Liverpool Philharmonic to access young people from all over the city and encourage them into the building to enjoy classical music. The dance pieces were performed across the front of the stage with the backdrop of a full orchestra behind playing the music of Beethoven, Mozart, Arvo Part and Holst interwoven by Levi Tafari delivering specially written dub poetry. Each performance played to audiences of over 1,700 young people at a time. The project was also accompanied by dance/music workshops devised by the dancers and the Philharmonic education outreach team.
