About the Worldship Orchestra:
WSO (Worldship Orchestra) from Japan, founded by leader, Akihide Noguchi, aims to cater free classical concerts for the children in the Philippines and other Asian countries. The group also gives free music workshop for children in different schools and institutions. It is the first tour of the orchestra in Manila carrying the name of WORLDSHIP, this February 2015 with the partnership of Manila Symphony Orchestra. WSO dreams a future in which all the children will have the chance to involve themselves in music particularly in orchestra education in their local community for lifeskill enhancement.
Starting February 14, 2015, WSO will explore around Manila to meet thousands of children. Not only watching and listening to the orchestra, the children will have the chance to join, sing along and conduct with the orchestra members onstage. This kind of experience will instill the beauty of music that builds self-esteem, confidence, hope and the inspiration to strive and shine in the future. Immersing one’s self in an orchestra teaches how important it is to behave in a team in order to be constructive and cooperative to one another, literally in HARMONY with friends. WSO believes that this is the best way to keep instill the value of peace in our children.
