About the Event

Junior Guildhall’s Symphony Orchestra and String Ensemble present a vibrant programme spanning the 20th-century orchestral repertoire.

The programme features the intensity of Shostakovich’s Chamber Symphony for String Orchestra and the luminous colour of Respighi’s Pines of Rome. Music by Grace Williams and Lili Boulanger completes an evening celebrating imagination, lyricism and the distinctive voices of the last century.

The concert is conducted by Julian Clayton and Peggy Wu, showcasing the artistry and ambition of Junior Guildhall’s outstanding young musicians.
