The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment at Acland Burghley School

The Early Music Show

Available for 10 days

Hannah French visits Acland Burghley School in north London to find out about its relationship with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, who are now resident there. The OAE moved into Acland Burghley School - a non-uniformed comprehensive in North London - in September 2020, making it the first residency of its kind in the United Kingdom. The school isn’t just OAE’s landlord or physical home. Instead, through their long-standing partnership with Camden Music, the orchestra is helped to reach as wide an audience as possible. Hannah meets some of the OAE's players and staff, as well as some of the students who benefit from the exciting opportunities available to them.
