Elgar For Everyone Family Concert
Always a firm festival favourite, the annual Elgar for Everyone family concert brings over 100 young musicians together from across Elgar Country to perform a vividly varied programme alongside their teachers and mentors from English Symphony Orchestra, following 2 days of rehearsals and workshops.
We’re delighted to welcome renowned presenter, composer and author Zeb Soanes from Classic FM who will be both hosting and narrating the story of everyone’s favourite bear in Paddington Bear’s First Concert! The concert also includes the winning performances of the festival’s 2025 Young Composers Competition. An uplifting event not to be missed.
