About

Symphony in Ninety Minutes takes a group with no musical background and turns it into a real symphony orchestra after just an hour and a half of rehearsal.

Participants learn real instruments from four families: strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion. Expert musicians make sure every person has an instrument that suits them and a part they can master. There is no audition and no pressure, only encouragement.

Each section rehearses separately with its own musicians, step by step, until it feels confident and ready.

Then all sections come together under the conductor’s baton to perform a specially written, five-minute piece. The effect is electrifying, and few people forget the moment they first hear the whole group play.

Learning outcomes

This is one of the most demanding and rewarding team experiences there is. It pushes people beyond what they believe they can do and calls for hard work, full concentration and real teamwork.

The challenge is real, and so is the reward: an experience nobody will forget. Many participants call it the highlight of their year.

A symphony is one of the best examples of a team working as one. Players must be in tune with each other emotionally and creatively, and people doing very different tasks must all work toward the same goal.

Participants see firsthand how every section matters and how listening, timing and trust turn many separate parts into one powerful result. It is a true celebration of what a team can achieve together.
