Take a lunch break and enjoy free weekday afternoon recitals by some of the UK’s most exciting young musicians.
Discover the UK’s next big talent with concerts featuring remarkable Chetham’s School of Music performers, aged 8-18, from the UK’s leading music school.
In this concert, we will be celebrating some of our departing woodwind students. We regularly update our upcoming programmes for each Chetham’s concert, and you can find the full list here.*
Watch out for occasional special guest lunchtime concerts by professional artists, in a carefully curated series showcasing early career musicians.
*Chetham’s School of Music’s remarkable performers are still developing their craft, so we hope you’ll understand if very occasionally we change the programme at short notice. Thank you for supporting young musicians.
