In Conversation: How does an Orchestra work?

Comedian, conductor, and St Leonard's resident Rainer Hersch talks to Sarah Bardwell, Managing Director of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. This free event gives a fascinating (and entertaining) insight into the life of a symphony orchestra, what it's like to perform on the very boards that Rachmaninov himself once trod, and how playing for a competition differs from what usually goes on in the concert hall. The perfect appetiser if you’re coming to the Gala Concert later in the evening!

Tickets

Free, but booking is essential as capacity is limited via the White Rock Theatre Box Office.
