Seven young Maltese musicians recently attended Bedstone International Summer Youth Orchestral Camp, in Moor Park, UK.

Diane Vella and Alex Abela ­(violin), Daniel Zammit and Joseph Mallia (viola), Laura Cioffi and Clara Galea (flute) and Keith Sacco (oboe) attended the 12-day youth orchestral summer camp, where they rehearsed and performed Mahler’s First Symphony in D major and Strauss’s Der Fledermaus Overture under the direction of Mro Julian Gibbons.

They also attended sub-workshops on composition, string orchestra and jazz. At the end of the rehearsing period, participants performed four concerts.

The group thanked the BISYOC organisational team for their work, the Johann Strauss School of Music for encouraging their participation, their respective tutors and the Malta Arts Fund for their financial aid to some of the participants.
