This performance is the culmination of a series of workshops and rehearsals that have been taking place since November 2021, alongside Sheffield's very own composer, arrange and teacher George Morton (director of Sheffield's philharmonic orchestra), alongside our senior orchestra conductor David Ross.

The Leadmill have said "We're so excited to be leading this completely new venture that will help us to closely assist in the development of some outstanding talent that is currently based in Yorkshire, as well as being a fantastic opportunity for us to reconnect with the classical music scene in Sheffield."
