An ambitious four-part series exploring the powerful effect of classical music, Orchestra United, charts the creation of the Halle Harmony Youth Orchestra which brings together a cross section of young people from Manchester's vast cultural and ethnic community.

From a variety of backgrounds, the youth orchestra will be expected to perform a concert of classical music in front of a paying audience at Manchester's 2000 plus capacity Bridgewater Hall. With hugely varying levels of experience but a similar drive and passion, they will learn to relate to each other and work together in a way that would be impossible to conceive of in their everyday lives.
