Ensemble 10:10 was founded by members of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and is now in residence at The Tung Auditorium. The ensemble will be presenting three concerts showcasing new music, conducted, in his debut with the ensemble, by Domingo Hindoyan. The first of these is on Wednesday 22nd January at 7:30pm
Featuring Liverpool’s own William Bracken on piano, Alban Berg’s 1920s masterpiece was fashioned in the intellectual cauldron of Vienna. Kareem Roustom’s Violin Concerto was inspired by a musical phrase from a Mozart concerto which invoked his own Arabic musical heritage and language, and will be played tonight by its dedicatee, Michael Barenboim. On the other hand, Sam Kane – winner of the 2023 Rushworth Composition Prize – takes his musical roots from his own Irish ancestry.
Since opening in March 2022, The Tung Auditorium is heading into 2025 announcing its biggest half-season to date. Following acclaim for its previous seasons, Liverpool’s state-of-the-art concert hall will continue it’s dynamic and eclectic approach to programming. Ensemble 10:10 became one of the Auditoriums resident orchestra’s in 2022, it’s 25th anniversary.
The upcoming programme is packed with a spectacular array of genres and exceptional live performers, ranging through classical, chamber, contemporary, jazz, folk, and experimental music. From January – July 2025, the venue will showcase a fantastic mix of both new artists and returning favourites for its highly anticipated season of live music. – Richard Hartwell, Artistic Director of The Tung Auditorium has said
“We’re always delighted to unveil our forthcoming programme, and this time it’s a bumper crop of shows highlighting so much of what we do best. There is some great partnership work to produce the season, which features some high profile artists alongside emerging talent. Pick up a brochure or visit our website to see the full range of what’s on offer.”
