The Lady Chief Justice, in collaboration with the Bar of NI, is hosting a Spring Concert and Drinks Reception, in aid of Marie Curie, featuring the City of Belfast Youth Orchestra in the Royal Courts of Justice at 7.30pm on Wednesday 29th April 2026.
Join us for an exceptional evening of music in the magnificent surroundings of the Royal Courts of Justice as the Lady Chief Justice hosts the acclaimed City of Belfast Youth Orchestra for a special concert celebrating musical excellence and fundraising in aid of Marie Curie, the Bar of Northern Ireland’s nominated charity for 2026.
The Orchestra represents the very highest level of young musicians and celebrated its 70th year in 2025. It is one of the foremost youth orchestras in the UK and Ireland. It is the flagship ensemble of the Education Authority Music Service and has performed to high acclaim far and wide representing N Ireland many times, heading the bill at the prestigious Music for Youth Proms at the Albert Hall.
Biennial tours have taken these young musicians across Europe and beyond. In 2025, the Orchestra toured to Florence and Lake Garda as part of the Florence International Festival of Youth Orchestras and the MusicaRiva Festival.
This Spring Concert programme will include, inter alia, Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana - Intermezzo, The Lark Ascending by Vaughan Williams, Vivaldi Concerto for Four Violins in B Minor, Barber’s Adagio for Strings, and Haydn Trumpet Concerto, 2nd movement.
