Harriet Krijgh and the National Youth Orchestra of the Netherlands

This year, cellist Harriët Krijgh and conductor Martin Sieghart are the guests of honor.  The program boasts two final works: Edward Elgar’s famous cello concerto and Bruckner’s final symphony – the phenomenal Ninth.  
  
Almost every Dutch professional musician has played with the NJO when they were a student. This orchestra is unique thanks to their enthusiasm, energy, and talent, which enables them to play ambitious programs which are sometimes too much even for established orchestras.
