Backstage Episode #47: New Beginnings with Dinis Sousa and Young Musicians Programme

The theme for this episode is New Beginnings. Royal Northern Sinfonia, Sage Gateshead’s very own orchestra, has a new principal conductor, Dinis Sousa – we meet him and hear his vision for the Sinfonia and its role here in the north east and beyond

And now that Sage Gateshead’s Young Musicians Programme of tuition for aspiring musicians has opened applications for 2021/22, we meet one young violinist, Connie Hayward, who says that for her the programme has been lifechanging.
