Hastings Philharmonic Orchestra Concert

About

This is the second full orchestral concert of our 2021-22 season at the White Rock Theatre, where HPO is the new orchestra in residence.

Over one hundred years ago Hastings was proud to support a professional orchestra, which regularly performed high-quality classical music concerts with international soloists under the baton of renowned conductors.

Since 2016 our Artistic Director and Principal Conductor Marcio da Silva and his team, have worked tirelessly to re-establish a professional orchestra in Hastings. This year, Marcio and the musicians of the current HPO, celebrate HPO's heritage and the dynamic history of past conductors of the original Hastings Municipal Orchestra, by returning to the White Rock Theatre and other venues in Hastings and the wider area, to foster the core aim of the orchestra: 'to put Hastings back on the map as a centre of excellence for classical music'.

HPO is delighted to welcome award-winning Brazilian pianist André Dolabella as soloist for this concert.
