Spring Strings: Chetham's School of Music Young Artists' Platform

SPRING STRINGS: Young Artists' Platform

with Chetham's String Orchestra

Glossop Music Festival partner with Chetham's School of Music to bring the next generation of artists together in this one-of-a-kind event for young string players.

We present a one-hour concert featuring the dynamic young string players of Chetham's School of Music in a sparkling programme featuring music by Tchaikovsky, Suk... and a few surprises. A wonderful opportunity to hear and support the stars of tomorrow!

This concert will follow an afternoon of workshops and performances in the community, supported by the Dark Peak Music Foundation, with young musicians from local schools and string players of Dark Peak Music.

Tickets

We want world-class classical music to be accessible to all, and so this event will not be ticketed - simply turn up on the night and enjoy the concert.

Donations will be sought at the end to reflect what you felt the concert was worth. We ask our audience to donate as generously as possible, according to your means. The money raised will help cover the costs of our extensive education initiatives, including both this event (workshops, performances and evening concert), and the Summer Festival education programme as part of our week-long Summer Festival.

Seating for this event will be unreserved, and available on a first-come, first-served basis. There is the option to RSVP on here, but that will just let us know you're coming to the concert. It does not reserve you a seat or guarantee entry.

The doors open and refreshments will be available from 6.30pm, and we encourage you to arrive early to choose your seats. Drinks can be taken to your seats.

Those who have joined the GMF Friends will be able to take advantage of reserved seats towards the front of the church, as a token of our appreciation for their support of Glossop Music Festival. Friends should email friends@glossopmusicfestival.org.uk with their seating requirements.
