Members of both the Foyle Future Firsts and Leverhulme Young Composers programmes have been supported throughout the academic year to arrive at Debut Sounds. The Foyle Future Firsts programme is an annual apprenticeship programme designed to support young instrumentalists embarking on professional orchestral careers, through playing in full orchestral rehearsals, lessons and mentoring from LPO Principals and high profile performance opportunities. The four young composers have received advice and support from Composer in Residence Julian Anderson and conductor Clement Power, through a series of workshops dedicated to experimenting with their compositional ideas.

Come and hear new sound worlds and discover young talent at the highest level.
