The City Music Society Autumn 2026 Young Artists Series celebrates the amazing talent of musicians performing and studying in the UK.
Not one but two double bass soloists grace the series. This ‘cinderella’ of the musical family of instruments features in a concerto performance (19th November) and in a duo with piano (22nd October), demonstrating the instrument’s under-rated capacity for beautiful ‘cantabile’ melody.
Works by Johann Sebastian Bach filter through the series while our young artists, as always, explore the highways and byways of music history, revealing some lesser-known gems.
Many of our artists are major prize winners, emerging from the UK’s leading conservatoires, while some of the concerts mark the role of The Worshipful Company of Musicians in supporting and encouraging outstanding young musicians as they begin their careers.
