We are also delighted to announce soloist Ciaran McCabe (ex UYO and now member of Maggini Quartet & the London Chamber Orchestra) who will perform Korngold’s Violin Concerto between these two classical masterpieces.
Dvořák Carnival Overture
Sibelius Symphony No.1 in E minor
Joining Daniele and Ciaran at the 10 day residential course will be rehearsal conductor Daniel Palmizio and a team of experienced professional tutors who will deliver an exceptionally high standard of musical training.
The residential course begins at Greenmount College in Antrim on 16th August and culminates with two public concerts at the Guildhall in Derry/Londonderry on 24th August and at the Ulster Hall on 25th August 2020.
Both challenging and highly rewarding, this course offers a unique orchestral experience which develops the talented young musician musically and socially.
