Sir Mark Elder, conductor
The National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain marks the start of its 70th anniversary by taking listeners on a musical journey into the mystical, the magical and the fantastical, culminating with Bartok's Duke Bluebeard's Castle. It is the first time the orchestra has presented a full length opera. The NYO are joined by members of the National Youth Theatre for a chilling tale of a determined young bride who uncovers the dark truth about her new husband. The performance is brought to life with lighting, acting and theatre conceived by director Daisy Evans.
The episode image for this programme is by Children's Laureate Chris Riddell, the National Youth Orchestra's first ever Artist in Residence.
