· The focus for the school visits to the National Maritime Museum and the inspiration for the music and dance pieces will be the Voyagers Gallery which features a digital wave and over 200 objects grouped according to 6 different emotions (Anticipation, love, sadness, aggression, pride and joy) http://www.rmg.co.uk/visit/exhibitions/voyagers/
· The Animate Orchestra, working with Jason Rowlands during the Easter holidays, will compose 3 minute music pieces for each of the above emotions. This will be the music that the dance pieces are choreographed to. A sixth music piece for sadness will be played live at the performance on 28th June
