    The line-up for this year's Harrogate Music Festival has been announced today.

    The festival, which will take place in June and July, includes a range of live music from classical and chamber to cabaret and jazz.

    City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra  will launch the festival with an opening night performance at the Royal Hall on June 8.

    It will be the world famous orchestra's first time in Harrogate for more than a decade.

    The programme features Caroline Shaw’s Entr’acte, Carl Maria von Weber’s Clarinet Concerto No.1 and Jean Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2. Ludovic Morlot will be the conductor for the night, joined by soloist Oliver Janes.



    This year’s line-up also includes the Gildas Quartet as well as the Maxwell Quartet, British jazz singer Jo Harrop, contemporary soul singer Mica Sefia, and Bradford-based dance company Punjabi Roots.

    Further acts will be announced.

    Sharon Canavar, chief executive of Harrogate International Festivals, the arts charity that organises the festival, said:

     “We are delighted to have the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra launching this year’s summer season. It has such a rich heritage and is one of the most revered orchestras around.
    "Harrogate’s audience will be able to get the Proms experience without needing to trek down to London, so this really is an opportunity for classical music fans in the north to enjoy an internationally renowned orchestra performing in a world class venue."


    Tickets are available here.
