YORK GUILDHALL ORCHESTRA
15/10/2022
The first concert in the orchestra’s 42nd season features a programme of popular
music. It will be a delight to welcome local lad Will Clark to perform Vaughan Williams
with us; although he has played with the orchestra as a youngster, this will be his first
outing as soloist with us. We are also joined by our old friends, Leeds Festival Chorus in the Lambert and Fauré. The wonderfully rousing Festive Overture is a great way to start any concert – and finishing with a foot-tapping rendition of the superb Danzón No.2 will send everyone skipping home with a smile on their face!

YORK GUILDHALL ORCHESTRA
11/02/2023
The second concert in this season will see us welcome back Leeds Festival Chorus
in this all-Beethoven concert with one of his show-stopping symphonies.
The two overtures will be very familiar to concert goers, and they are great fun to
play and to listen to. The Meeresstille und Glückliche Farht is a setting of two poems
by the German poet Goethe and translates as Calm sea and prosperous voyage.
From his Oratorio, Christ on the Mount of Olives, the choir will join the orchestra in
the Hallelujah Chorus.
