Sinfonia Cymru: Chamber Music Supersized
Gregynog Hall, Tregynon, Saturday 20th June 2026 7:30PM
Sinfonia Cymru are Wales’ orchestra of young talent, a collective of dynamic professional musicians all aged under 30, from Wales and around the world. Whether we’re performing classical music, new compositions or exciting collaborations with celebrated musicians from other genres, we play with passion, precision and a spirit of adventure.
Directed by Sinfonia Cymru’s leader Haim Choi, this exciting evening will showcase some of the UK’s finest young musicians performing live chamber music in the beautiful surroundings of Gregynog Hall.
The concert is designed to be welcoming and accessible for everyone - including those who may be experiencing live classical music for the first time.
Octet, Nonet, Dectet and bigger – this is chamber music supersized. Sinfonia Cymru’s leader, Haim Choi, steps into the spotlight to direct a thrilling programme bursting with joy, spontaneity, and electric energy.
At the heart of the concert is Mendelssohn’s iconic Octet, a firecracker of youthful imagination, shaped and performed with Haim’s trademark vibrancy. Alongside it sits Louise Farrenc’s Nonet, an elegant and powerful composition long overdue for time in the spotlight.
The programme also features Françaix’s Dectet and Mustonen’s Nonet, each playfully blending the modern with the nostalgic, like musical postcards from another time.
We also have a special treat: a brand-new arrangement of Lili Boulanger’s D’un matin de printemps for fourteen musicians, a shimmering celebration of spring.
Join us, Sinfonia Cymru, for this wonderful programme that is brimming with life and sparkling energy.
