At ERSO we are committed to providing opportunities for talented early career musicians. Last night’s concert was a great example with Joint 2025 Winner of our Soloist competition Emily Ambrose giving a superbly accomplished performance of the Hummel Bassoon concerto, expertly conducted by Assistant Conductor Alice Knight. The evening opened with the UK premiere of a beautiful piece, Frieden, by Alex Papp who was a former winner of our competition for emerging composers.
And our string Section Leaders ensured that the string sections sounded amazing, with some lovely cello solos in Symphony no 1 by Shostakovich from Principal Cellist Alex Lavine
