Leeds Conservatoire x Orchestra of Opera North

Under the baton of Dutch conductor Frank Zielhorst, students from Leeds Conservatoire join forces with the Orchestra of Opera North in their first joint orchestral concert.

Join us for a spotlight moment in our academic partnership with Leeds Conservatoire as we fill The Venue with Bernstein and Dvorak, as well as lesser-known works by Nino Rota and Missy Mazzoli.

Dutch conductor Frank Zielhorst (Principal Conductor, Sinfonia Viva, Derby) conducts an American-inspired programme featuring Rota’s Trombone Concerto in C and Mazzoli’s ‘Holy Roller’, bookended by two cornerstones of the classical repertoire, Bernstein’s overture to Candide and Dvorak’s 9th Symphony, From the New World.
