Year 6 Bamboozled by the LSO

Year 6 were very lucky to experience the wonderful sound of the London Symphony Orchestra live at the Barbican Centre last week. After an easy Tube journey, Year 6 settled in their seats alongside children from other schools in and around London. A spine-tingling version of the James Bond theme opened the performance followed by many other crowd-pleasing movie classics. Indiana Jones, Harry Potter and Wall-E proved to be very popular with the children and they were impressed by the skills of the musicians who played on the actual movie soundtracks. The highlight of the day was the stamp-clap of the audience participation piece called Bamboozled. Hacton pupils were in fine voice as the auditorium echoed to the sound of the rhythmic song/rap that the children have learnt in class. Singing along with music played live by the world class musicians was an unforgettable experience.
