The annual Concertos Festival features two concerts in one night, celebrating the individual talents of our gifted instrumentalists performing concerto movements with the Symphony Orchestra. Each concert will feature the world premiere of a work by a recipient of the 2020 Silver Harris and Jeff Peck Composition Prize. Conductors for this event will be Peter Luff and Paul Dean.
