This is our flagship orchestra. Children usually will have achieved Grade 7 – 8 on their violin and Grade 6 on violas or cellos to take part. We play some very challenging repertoire including works specially written for us, therefore personal practice outside of YMC is certainly necessary. This year we have exciting repertoire planned: one of Mendelssohn’s youthful String Symphonies, the Vivaldi Double Cello Concerto and pieces by Louise Farrenc, Ethel Smyrna and Brahms.
