Euan Shields Conducts World Premieres by Mark Anthony Turnage and Joshua Brown, Featuring Sir John Tomlinson and Hallé Youth Ensembles

 

Always a Hallé favourite, this celebratory performance offers each of the Hallé’s Youth Ensembles a chance in the spotlight. The youngest artists, in the Children’s Choir, illustrate their experiences through movement and music, members of the Youth Training Choir show how developing voices can work together and the oldest members, in the Youth Choir and Youth Orchestra, offer us a glimpse of the musicians of the future. Together, in this joyful showcase, they give performances that will linger in the memories of those on stage and in the audience.
