Central Foundation hosts a performance by the Guildhall String Ensemble

On Friday 17th January, Central Foundation hosted a performance by the Guildhall String Ensemble, directed by renowned violinist Candida Thompson. In attendance were members of our various ensembles and orchestras.

The compelling and ambitious programme featured Thomas Adès’ Shanty – Over the Sea and Sonata for String Orchestra by William Walton.

Having attended Viola Day at the Guildhall’s Barbican campus for a number of years, it was a huge pleasure to now welcome Guildhall musicians to Cowper Street.
