About this concert

Ensemble 10/10, double winner of the 20th Royal Philharmonic Society Music Awards in 2009, is the acclaimed contemporary ensemble of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.

Forming part of Al Farabi Concerto – a series of concerts designed to promote the music of Arab composers, alongside that of their Western counterparts – this concert introduces, among other things, a new work by Liverpool’s own Kenneth Hesketh.
