Grammy Award-winning classical ensemble Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason dazzle with classical-era standards by Mozart and Haydn. 

Isata Kanneh-Mason offers eclectic and interesting recital programs with repertoire encompassing Haydn and Mozart, Fanny Mendelssohn and Clara Schumann, Chopin and Brahms to Gershwin and beyond. Following her phenomenally successful concerto debut at the BBC Proms in 2023, she was invited to open the festival in July 2024 with the BBC Symphony and conductor Elim Chan, a performance which resulted in stellar reviews in the mainstream press.
