'Youth Manifesto' by National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain and featuring Gustavo Dudamel

Additionally , earlier this year, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and world-renowned conductor Gustavo Dudamel arrived at the Barbican for an International Associate residency, also delivering a Youth Manifesto- an open rehearsal on the 4th May 2018 with 150 musicians from all around the UK, including members of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain. This was where 'Tuning into Change' was launched, a book created from the thoughts of 40 young people, alongside 10 young people from America, on nurturing music for future generations. It was one of our seven commissions from the Barbican.
