The orchestra is delighted to announce that it will be joined by Chris Bradley to play the cimbalom in Hary Janos. Chris is the principal percussionist with Opera North, and plays percussion professionally with many leading orchestras in the UK and abroad. Chris has very kindly agreed to give a short informal talk and demonstration of the cimbalom after the concert in the theatre, for any who would like to stay on.
