Monteverdi Plus

Following the highly successful residency with Folkestra in 2015, we are delighted to welcome the Sage Gateshead’s classical music youth orchestra, Young Sinfonia, to the stage. Encompassing some 40 outstanding string, wind, brass and percussion players aged 13 - 19 drawn from across the North of England, the orchestra is directed by Justin Doyle. For this residency, young musicians will explore concert repertory alongside early music specialists Tim Smedley and Jennifer Cohen. The concluding showcase concert features music by Monteverdi, Handel and Schubert as well as an exciting new work from University of York alumni Freddy Viner who completed his undergraduate studies in 2016.
