The project is nominated for the awards of Best Innovation and Best Event categories at the BT Digital Music Awards. The Best Innovation Award is judged by a panel while the Best Event Award is judged by the public.

sit.PLAY
By taking a seat on the stage, people become players. The instrument that belongs there begins to sound, playing its part in a piece of music. They also have the opportunity to experience all the instruments of an orchestra by moving around the space and trying different seats. To give everyone a chance to PLAY. some seats have been replaced by 'hotspots' with a representantion of their instruments on the floor, allowing wheelchair users to trigger instruments. The more seats or hotspots are occupied, the more the composition is revealed.
