University Choir and Philharmonia

We are delighted to welcome back international exchange student Sunmin Ahn from Korea to perform with the University Orchestra. The University Choir and Philharmonia join forces for Michael Tippett’s secular oratorio A Child of Our Time – a work that remains as relevant today, advocating reconciliation and peace, as it did when it premiered in 1944.
