Our hope is that concerts by the Youth Orchestra and the Sinfonia can still go ahead over the remainder of 2020 but we are keeping a watchful eye on the alert levels!
The October concert (date and venue to be announced) will be given by the Manawatu Youth Orchestra and will include movements from pieces featuring violin and cello soloists.
The Sinfonia's November concert, if it goes ahead, will feature conductor Martin Riseley with brilliant young violin soloist Nickolas Majic.
The Sinfonia plans to hold what was to be this year's May concert with Peter van Drimmelen (conductor) and Emma Minchin (flautist) in May 2021.
Later in 2021 the Sinfonia hopes to do a celebration of Beethoven's 250th, featuring the Emperor concerto played and conducted by Andrew Atkins, along with some of the most memorable movements from four of Beethoven's symphonies. (This might seem like a belated celebration but not to worry, Beethoven will still be 250!)
