The Australian Youth Orchestra’s Young Symphonists is set to showcase their vivacious energy and incredible skill at a FREE concert at Bathurst Memorial Entertainment Centre on Saturday 30 September at 7.30 pm.

Secure your FREE ticket here. ^

Led by Simon Hewett, the orchestra is made up of 60 gifted musicians between the ages of 13 and 18.

The program will open with Queensland-based composer Sam Dickenson’s Across the Years, followed by Britten’s beloved Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra. This work uses a sweeping theme by Purcell to showcase the different corners of the orchestra, giving every instrument a chance to shine.



The concert will culminate with Rachmaninov’s Symphony No.2. Rachmaninov’s ability to craft beautiful, heart-wrenching melodies is on full display in this symphony. The work unfolds over the course of an hour with cascading waves of rich orchestral colour.



AYO Young Symphonists is many musicians’ first step onto the AYO pathway. The intensive week-long program sees musicians undergo an exciting and rigorous rehearsal and performance program before showcasing their newly honed skills in a public performance.

^Tickets for this concert are free, however, bookings will incur an associated booking fee from BMEC.
