    I think this is a wonderful film and have shared it with fellow members of ELLSO (the East London Late Starters Orchestra). I wonder if we could form a friendship between our two orchestras. I don’t know who to contact but If somebody from the orchestra would like to email me with a contact we could talk about it.
    I hope to hear from you.
    Keep playing!
    Best wishes,
    Linda

      Hi Linda,

      glad you like the video.
      I am one of the people who made it in order to raise interest in the extraordinary orchestra, because we plan a documentary film about it.
      I write from Kinshasa, Congo, where we are actually shooting the film.
      Please do not hesitate to ask, and I will tell the orchestra about your interest to cooperate. Can you tell me more about your orchestra?

      Greetings
      Martin

    I am very pleased to see that you like the short trailer we filmed in Kinshasa. In the meantime the orchestra had its first open air performance in its neighborhood, Ngiri-Ngiri. A great success with thousands of Kinois attending a three hour concert.
    That event will be featured in the documentary film about the orchestra. Please take a look at the website http://www.kinshasa-symphony.com.
