This
section contains masses of information on the instruments of the orchestra.
We've interviewed members of the Philharmonia Orchestra to find out how
the instruments are played and the tricks of the trade. Use the menu on the left to explore hundreds
of articles, photos, examples of notation, audio and video clips. This
unique resource will be invaluable for performers, composers and anyone
with an interest in music and we will also be continuing to add new resources
on a regular basis.
