There's lots to do on this kids' orchestra site, including:
Instrument Room where you can learn about the orchestra instruments and hear them play.
Musicians Lounge where you can "meet" some of the musicians in the orchestra.
Orchestration Station, where you can select which instruments you want to play a piece, and hear the results.
There's lots more, and the information has a nice personal touch - for example some of the instrument profiles include quotes from philharmonic musicians about what they think about when playing the instrument. The Game Room has some fun and clever games too.
