Soprano Pamela Agius, bass Noel Galea and singer Ludwig Galea joined forces to present a combination of classic and pop repertoire. The orchestra, made up of 50 Gozitan youths under the direction of Joseph Grech, played a selection of operatic arias from Mozart's The Magic Flute, Verdi's Un Ballo in Maschera, Strauss' Die Fledermaus and Puccini's Boheme and Tosca.

A number of lighter pop arrangements from soundtracks and musicals including West Side Story, Phantom of the Opera, Magnificent Seven, Aspects of Love, Chess and Sound of Music followed.
