Selected speech
Our passion in standing by this vision is informed and under-pinned by the consumer research we have commissioned throughout 2018. We have taken time to ask questions and listen to people's responses. The research has told us that orchestral music is the future – and if we all acknowledge and respond to peoples' terms of engagement with the genre in Britain today, there are firm grounds to assume orchestral music could be poised for a revival - or even a new Golden Age.
