Youngsters from deprived area display their talents in pioneering orchestra

Youngsters in Aberdeen with no previous musical background have been showing off their new talents in a pioneering orchestra.
Big Noise Torry provides free music lessons to one of the city’s most deprived areas and helps young people reach their full potential through music.
Lorna Carruthers, who runs the Torry centre, told STV News: “The concept behind Big Noise was to create an orchestra as a community to think about the positive outcomes for young people.
“There’s so much potential in every young person, so it’s a real privilege to find a way of unlocking that potential through music."
