National Youth Orchestra, Royal Festival Hall: Gavin Higgins “Concerto Grosso for Brass Band”
“Tess Jackson, NYO’s Associate Conductor and a former orchestra member, was on the podium for the Higgins [Concerto Grosso for Brass Band and Orchestra]. She was an absolutely steady, clear presence, thoughtfully shaping this five-movement work.”
