Lewis Gaston returns to conduct Amadeus Chamber Orchestra for our May concert. We open with Mendelssohn's romantic 'The Fair Melusina' overture, then welcome Ella Harrison as soloist in the lively and virtuosic Shostakovich 1st cello concerto. The second half of the concert opens with Wagner's intimate and tender Siegfried Idyll, written as a birthday gift for his wife. Haydn's dramatic Symphony no. 100 'Military' completes this exciting programme.Our soloist Ella attended The Purcell School and is now in her first year at the Royal College of Music. She was a member of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain for five years, including as principal cello in 2025, performing at the BBC Proms. She performed Elgar's Cello Concerto at Julian Lloyd Webber’s Broadway Arts Festival and has given recitals and performances as a chamber musician at St James Piccadilly, the Wigmore Hall and the Barber Institute of Fine Arts.
