"Few people have the ability to experience these massive late-romantic scores from the inside as the players do. This was the next best thing." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️(@thetimes)

With Aurora trending again, it’s a good moment to mention @auroraorchestra ‘s next concert at Drumsheds on Thursday 17th Oct. Come and step inside the orchestra as we play Firebird and Bolero. https://t.co/N8ikNACgJa

Out now on @MarqueeArtsTV: Aurora’s Orchestral Theatre production of The Rite of Spring w/@nicholascollon. Huge thanks to @yleuutiset, @helsinkifest, @thespacearts and @bbcproms for making this project and recording happen – we're so glad we can finally bring it to you at home.

[John Suchet @johnsuchet1]

Inspirational. Immaculate. Immersive. A Beethoven 9 unlike any other. The Turkish March enters - literally. Look at the singers’ smiles! I gasped and cheered. Just what Beethoven would want. A Choral Symphony for our time. Bravo @nicholascollon @auroraorchestra @bbcproms

Awful news!!

[Andrew Morris @devilstrillblog]

The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama told its staff today that it is axeing its junior department at the end of this term. Almost 200 children study there on saturdays. That will all stop in July. This is not rich kids playing expensive instruments. One of them texted...

[Philip Joslin @philipjoslin]

Some say it’s just a gimmick and if you close your eyes it sounds just the same. I disagree. The @auroraorchestra were fabulous this evening. The thrill of watching these amazing players so involved with the music truly enhances the listening experience. Thank you!
