Join the Cardiff Chamber Orchestra for a landmark concert celebrating disabled leadership and creativity at the heart of orchestral music and marking a series of important firsts. It connects the experiences of Joaquín Rodrigo, a blind composer, with Georgia Steel, a sight-impaired musician; this concert will be the first time Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez has been conducted by a sight-impaired musician. The performance also features home-grown Welsh talent in guitarist Oliver Manning and the world premiere of a newly commissioned work by disabled composer Charlotte McGregor-Graham, alongside music by historical composers who lived and worked with disabilities. Together, the programme reframes the orchestral canon through the lens of disabled excellence, past and present.
