All Together Now: The Great Orchestra Challenge - S01E01
Four-part series (September 2016) looking for the orchestra that best captures the spirit of great British amateur music-making in the UK.
Presented by Proms host and former Strictly Come Dancing finalist Katie Derham, it attempts to get under the skin of the real musical and personal challenges that face five amateur orchestras as they try to truly come together and rise to new musical heights. Can the players master their sheet music while also getting on with their varied day jobs as farmers, supermarket workers, carers and undertakers? Who will rise to the challenge? And who will find themselves dismissed from the contest?
The series begins with five amateur orchestras from across the UK - The Slaithwaite Philharmonic from Yorkshire, The North Devon Symphonia, The London Gay Symphony Orchestra, The Stirling Orchestra and The People's Orchestra from Birmingham.
Each orchestra receives a masterclass from the series judge, world-renowned conductor Paul Daniel, while double-bass maestro Chi-chi Nwanoku mentors each orchestra as they strive to reach their full potential.
This week's challenge is to master that pinnacle of orchestral playing, the symphony. Each of the five orchestras tackle an allotted extract from the likes of Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov which they then perform at the BBC's legendary Maida Vale Studios - after which one orchestra will be eliminated from the contest by Daniel.

In episode two, the five amateur orchestras have become four - The North Devon Sinfonia, The London Gay Symphony Orchestra, The Stirling Orchestra and The People's Orchestra from Birmingham, who must all get to grips with opera. It's hard enough for professionals to play with opera singers - how will the cheesemakers, lupin-growers and GCSE students of our amateur orchestras cope?

The orchestras take on another difficult musical form - the concerto, an orchestral piece featuring a virtuoso soloist. A daunting project for any orchestra, but this time the soloist will be chosen from the orchestras' own ranks. Can they elevate one of their own and mould them into a virtuoso performer in a few short weeks?
It's not just the soloists who will have to up their game. The whole orchestra will have to support and lift them to greater heights. And if that wasn't enough, the orchestras will also showcase their work at a concert that they will plan and produce themselves on their home turf.
Each of the three remaining orchestras get extra tuition and help from the series' judge, renowned conductor Paul Daniel. And the series mentor Chi-chi Nwanoku selects three world-class musicians to give our soloists individual mentoring sessions.
We follow the orchestras as they rehearse and plan the concerts, and we follow the soloists as they attempt to grow into the role of virtuoso performers.
The show culminates in the performances the orchestras put on themselves, after which one orchestra will be eliminated from the contest by Paul Daniel.

It is the grand final. Months of masterclasses, mentoring and last-minute rehearsals culminate in a musical playoff between the two remaining orchestras at the Royal Albert Hall. At stake is the chance to perform at the celebrated Proms in the Park and be crowned Britain's most inspirational amateur orchestra.
In preparation for the final, both orchestras are packed off to a boot camp where a team of professional musicians have been lined up to put them through the musical wringer. Series judge Paul Daniel gives them their last masterclass, while series mentor Chi-chi Nwanoku keeps a close eye on proceedings.
With just two weeks till the playoff, the orchestras return to their home towns. We follow them as they struggle to squeeze in extra practices between work and families, fine-tuning their performance and adding final flourishes, preparing to do musical battle at the Royal Albert Hall.
The series concludes with a once-in-a-lifetime performance from the winning orchestra at Proms in the Park in front of family, friends and an audience of thousands.
