The Irish Midlands Youth Orchestra are delighted to present a concert in Backstage Theatre, Longford as part of Camlin Keys Music Festival 2025.

Fresh off a performance in the National Concert Hall, the orchestra will play a varied programme from Brahms and Tchaikovsky, through to John Powell’s soundtrack to How to Train Your Dragon and a new commission by Irish composer Tim Doyle. The concert will also feature award-winning guest performers the Lynn Singers, and feature a collaboration between both groups not to be missed.

Playing in Backstage Theatre to close the Camlin Keys Festival, conductor Matt Rafter said: “We are very excited to perform in the wonderful Backstage Theatre, as part of Camlin Keys Music Festival. With a steady stream of talented young musicians coming out of Longford, this is the perfect opportunity to present high quality orchestral music, played by young musicians from all over the Midlands.”
