Over the past year I have been working with schoolchildren and refugees from Open Door. We have created a work which explores the themes of my orchestral work MIGHTY RIVER which will be performed in Hull as part of the PRSF New Music Biennial and Hull City of Culture celebrations.

It has been a joy and a privilege working with the people of Hull.

Errollyn Wallen's orchestral work Mighty River will be performed by her own Orchestra X at the riverfront as part of PRSF New Music Biennial celebrations at Hull which is City of Culture 2017.

Watch out for details of performances at London's Southbank Centre and in Oxford.

The producers of these special events are Oxford Contemporary Music.

The resident composers and participants of Hull 2017 — Jason Singh, Sam Lee, Brian Irvine, Eliza Carthy and Errollyn Wallen — come together to perform music under the directorship of James Redwood.

Performed by Orchestra X

After the rapturous reception of Chineke's bravura performance of Concerto Grosso at Classical: NEXT in Rotterdam, Chineke! perform the work again at Errollyn's alma mater, King's College, Cambridge.

Commisisoned by Orchestra of the Swan and published by Peters Edition, Concerto Grosso has been taken up by Chineke! who bring tremendous verve and virtuosity to the work — qualities which brought the house down in their first performance of the work in Rotterdam at Classical:NEXT in May.

Chineke! continue their autumn tour of Errollyn Wallen's Concerto Grosso at this great venue.
