In 2012, the National Youth Orchestra’s mission to inspire young people nationwide is hitting the streets. Anna Meredith’s HandsFree will enable the NYO, in groups of 16 to 160, to share their thrilling musicianship and creative inventiveness without their instruments, through clapping and beatboxing. Set for flashmob style performances in cities nationwide and as a surprise opener/encore to NYO concerts, Anna will shape HandsFree in workshops with members of the NYO, in her words, ‘building a piece they’re excited to perform and want to own, that showcases their virtuosity to audiences old and new’.
