Young people are at the heart of this concert, working with the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra and Southbank Centre to bring together contemporary music, classical and more 鈥� nothing is off limits. Leonard Bernstein pieces rub up against Clean Bandit songs, while Shostakovich sits next to Chick Corea arrangements and themes from Star Wars.

Enjoy hip hop dance fused with classical music with ZooNation Youth Company, performances from saxophonist and 成人快手 Young Musician finalist Jess Gillam and side-by-side performances with Lambeth In Harmony Orchestra and massed youth choirs.
