Stops Away

Led by organ animateur, Daniel Moult and Peter Davison, Artistic Planning Consultant at The Bridgewater Hall, this project has been a successful collaboration with Manchester Schools Music Service over the last three years, to give access to The Bridgewater Hall's £1.4m magnificent Marcussen organ.

Daniel leads composition workshops in schools and at the Hall, culminating in a public presentation attended by over 1000 school children. Designed as pilot project, the work is funded currently by The Pilling Trust and the Royal College of Organists to develop educational tools, such as an interactive DVD. Building on the success of the project, the project leaders are exploring ways of cascading the model into other venues.
