Philharmonia Orchestra And The Bach Choir

The Philharmonia Orchestra joins The Bach Choir and soloists for a charity gala performance conducted by Grant Llewellyn.

The focus of the first half is Britten’s charming Young Person’s Guide to The Orchestra, featuring a new script by Andrew McCaldon.

Then Italian violinist Francesca Dego performs Bruch’s hugely popular Violin Concerto No.1, before the performance culminates in perhaps Mozart’s most famous choral work: his Requiem.
