Cllr Orrell said he was delighted to welcome “these exceptional young musicians” to York, adding:

  • The NCEM’s focus on presenting music of the past to a new and ever more engaged group of youngers is part of the DNA of the city’s cultural scene – providing a showcase of international talent but also working year-round to support creative partnerships across the community.

    This concert is designed to help raise money for the City’s Music4U programme – supporting youngsters living in challenging circumstances for whom music making is a life-line, and we urge you to join us.
