Being back at the newly transformed space at St John’s Waterloo was greatly appreciated by our players and our wonderfully warm audience. The evening opened with Assistant Conductor Olivia Tait expertly directing the orchestra in Grant Still’s Threnody in Memory of Jean Sibelius. Our soloist Ellen Baumring-Gledhill gave an amazing performance of the Elgar Cello Concerto and the evening concluded with Schubert’s “Great” C major symphony, prefaced by insightful commentary from conductor Chris Stark. All in all, a great evening!
