Led by Maestro Ben Pope, and featuring a specially commissioned piece by Dame Shirley Thompson OBE, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra joins forces with Queen’s College pupils from both Schools to perform a spectacular programme celebrating the pioneering ethos of Queen’s College and key moments in its illustrious history.

This evening’s repertoire is wide-ranging to suit a multitude of tastes and ranges from Handel’s Zadok the Priest and Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, to celebrated wartime music and a medley of modern day popular favourites.
