Orchestre Démos Lyon Métropole
In September 2017, the Auditorium-Orchestre national de Lyon and a large number of social, artistic and educational partners embarked on the DÉMOS project and formed the Orchestre Démos Lyon Métropole.
The Sound Workshops are designed to give everyone an opportunity to explore and play music together.
They take the form of either several sessions or a single workshop, and are designed for adults and children, participating as a family or individually. Early childhood specialists, musicologists and professional musicians lead the workshops with tremendous enthusiasm in a room specially set up for these activities. A dedicated stock of instruments is made available to the workshop participants so that everyone can enjoy a new and unique experience.
The youngest children are introduced to music through a sensory approach that alternates handling sound objects, discovering sounds, listening to nursery rhymes and musical games, while the collective music making is reserved for the older children.

Families get together on the weekend for an introduction to collective music making.
For adults interested in taking a musical break, no prior musical training is necessary: they just have to be curious!
The Auditorium-Orchestre national de Lyon runs lunchtime sessions in playing an instrument or singing in a group, designed simply to have fun or to discover their hidden talents.
In the early evening, question time: two formats to discuss and answer all of the questions asked by beginners and participants with some experience, in a fun, relaxed atmosphere.
