A very successful and enjoyable concert, with an excellent turnout filling the Union Chapel. As well as performances by the full orchestra debuting some exciting new pieces, there was also a set from Tatcho Drom, Gundula's 5-piece Balkan/Gypsy music ensemble with their very interesting repertoire, and special guests on vocals - Nicola Burnett-Smith and Mark Glanville.
