New season gets underway for youth orchestra
This follows a successful 2016-17 season where the orchestras performed both winter and spring concerts to packed houses.
The talented musicians range in age from from 8 to 18 years playing across four orchestras: String orchestra, wind band, concert orchestra and symphony orchestra who all produce wonderful music including performances of their own compositions. This year the audience was thrilled to witness the symphony orchestra perform an original piece, Scherzo, by pupil Paul Mandujano.
