News in brief
This year sees the orchestra’s busiest and most ambitious concert season yet. Not only have we performed Rimsky Korsakov’s Scheherazade, the Grieg Piano Concerto with Firoze Madon, the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto with soloist Katie Mazur and Dvorak’s 8th Symphony, but we are preparing for a major outdoor summer concert on Chorleywood Common, Beethoven’s last major work, the famous 9th Choral Symphony, in September, followed by a Christmas Nutcracker family concert in December.
We have once again organised and run the Rickmansworth Young Musician of the Year competition which had 36 entries. The three winners and our judges are shown above. There is more about the competition inside this issue.

News in brief
The last few months have been a busy period for the orchestra. We have performed two concerts and our ensembles and bands have had a full schedule of Christmas events. You can read more about that in Christine Deeley’s article in this issue.
We have another orchestral concert in March which will feature the Tchaikovsky violin concerto performed by violinist, Katie Mazur.
The Rickmansworth Young Musician of the Year competition is well under way with 34 entries this year. The concert final will take place on Sunday 17th March, where the top eight young musicians will compete for the title.Attachment:

The orchestra is busy rehearsing for concerts in December and January, mainly under the baton of our assistant conductor, Ryan Bunce. At the moment we are focussing on music by Rimsky-Korsakov, Mussorgsky and shortly, Howard Blake.
We are also getting ready to launch our annual Rickmansworth Young Musician of the Year competition. This year we have the support of Richard Lawson Pianos, Herts County Council and St James’s Place. The final of the 2024 event will take place in March in front of an invited audience. Details of how to apply for tickets will be available soon.Attachment:
