NewsNews Story
Orchestras Live is delighted to be confirmed as a National Portfolio Organisation for the 2023-26 Arts Council England investment programme.
This funding will allow us to continue to fulfil our mission to ensure that orchestras are for everyone.
We have already embedded the Arts Council England’s four investment principles of Ambition and Quality, Dynamism, Environmental Responsibility, and Inclusivity and Relevance, into our business plan. We have developed key strands of work and projects in each area, which will stretch us as an organisation and support our people to develop their skills and potential.
We are very grateful to Arts Council England for continuing to invest in our work. Their financial support will allow us to continue to work as a national producer; co-creating projects with our partners and local communities, widening access to orchestral experiences and allowing music and creativity to touch more lives.
~ Sarah Derbyshire MBE, CEO of Orchestras Live
I’m delighted that we are continuing to fund Orchestras Live through our national portfolio programme. It offers fantastic orchestral experiences to everyone, wherever they live and whatever their background, which strongly contributes to the aims of our Let’s Create strategy.
