As part of Absolute Classics’ 2018 Festival, we provided the young people who took part in our masterclasses with the opportunity to perform as part of a professional recital on a world-class stage.

Our Young People’s Recital is designed to provide local young people of Dumfries & Galloway with the exactly this opportunity, but in a positive and supportive environment.
