Gustav Mahler – Symphony No. 9

The Seraphin Chamber Orchestra will be joined by select graduate students from London Conservatoires, exceptionally talented young musicians from the Cambridge area (members of the National Youth Orchestra and BBC Young Musician finalists) and guest players from professional orchestras. The concert will raise money for the Voices Foundation.

As well as culminating in a very special performance, this project will be a unique opportunity for aspiring young musicians to learn from and perform alongside top professionals. By drawing upon leading players from Europe’s foremost orchestras (the Royal Philharmonic and Vienna Philharmonic amongst others), this performance of Mahler’s music can act as a symbol of cooperation and future investment.
