Celebrating the 200th anniversary of the birth of Anton Bruckner, The Glasshouse International Centre for Music welcomed nearly 500 musicians to their Big Bruckner Weekend, which took place 1-3 March. The only event of its kind in the UK, there were nearly 7500 attendances across the weekend, a feat as immense as the composers’ symphonies.

The weekend hosted exceptional performances from the North’s orchestras, with Royal Northern Sinfonia and its Chorus joined by visiting orchestras – Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, The Hallé, and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
