Season Finale Concert

This is the culmination of Orchestras for All 2017-2018 season of work, exploring the crossovers and connections between music and dance, and will see their 100-strong national youth ensemble joined on stage by 30 young dancers from companies across England and Scotland - DanceXchange, Cando2, right2dance and Barrowland Ballet.

The performance will feature the world première of Dance, Then... by composer Danyal Dhondy, inspired by work created by our young dancers and musicians at the recent Winter Sessions creative workshops in November and December 2017. The young dancers will perform brand new choreography devised at the Winter Sessions alongside the National Orchestra for All's specially created arrangements of a suite of Aaron Copland ballet music - including a massed performance to Copland's Fanfare for the Common Man.

Doors open at 3:30pm at the Octagon Centre. Tickets are free and can be reserved online via their website. Any questions about the performance, don't hesitate to get in touch with the Orchestras for All team at info@orchestrasforall.org or on 0207 267 4141.
