Philharmonia Orchestra Audio Podcast
Bringing King Richard III to Life - Exclusive Access to our Latest Education Project

This week's Backstage Pass is a behind-the-scenes documentary about the orchestra's latest education project. We follow 300 young singers and instrumentalists as they rehearse a work inspired by the discovery of Richard III in a Leicester car park. Composed by John Webb with creative input from the students, the musicians go on to complete a fantastic world premiere performance side by side with members of the Philharmonia.

Share the experience of the group as they find their feet with this ambitious composition, The Last Plantagenet.
