Join us for a joyful sharing of music, poetry, movement, and stories created by participants in the Hear and Now 2025 Leicester project.
Hear and Now is a free, intergenerational, music-based creative programme that brings together people living with dementia, their carers, and young people. Since 2017, the Philharmonia Orchestra has partnered with Leicester-based organisations to deliver inclusive, uplifting workshops where participants sing, compose, create, and connect.
This informal performance is the culmination of four collaborative workshop days, co-created by participants alongside local community leaders, artists, and Philharmonia musicians.
Hear and Now in Leicester is delivered in partnership with Leicester Musical Memory Box, LMMB: Geet Sangeet, Leicestershire Music Hub, De Montfort University, and Drum and Brass.
Supported by Music for All, Power of Music Fund. With funding from the National Academy for Social Prescribing, The Utley Foundation, Arts Council England, Music for Dementia, and Music for All.
Everyone is welcome and entry is free!
