Such a wonderful performance of Mendelssohn’s Elijah by @BelfPhil and @UlsterOrchestra. A work that is very close to my heart having researched it for the last year ❤️🎶

Last night was just great, a real 'tour de force". Bravo 👌
Tonight we look forward to rehearsing Elijah with this exciting lineup of soloists before joining with the Ulster Orchestra tomorrow!
We are also delighted to have a member of the Belfast Philharmonic Youth Choir performing a solo in the concert this Friday #belfastphil150

I'll be there! Such amazing memories of conducting @BelfPhil myself in Mendelssohn's fab piece a few years ago- really looking forward to hearing this fab music again, from the audience side this time! 😃🎶🎶
A full day of auditions are well under way and it's great to hear music from Elijah, our first concert of the season with the @UlsterOrchestra on November 29th in the Ulster Hall.
Did you know it's the first piece the Society performed 150 years ago? Tickets are available now!

To the @UlsterHall last night for Music For Good Friday performed by @UlsterOrchestra with the @BelfPhil. The single piece on the programme was Dvořák's Stabat Mater. I was blown away by this music; amazing doesn't even come close to describing it. #fridaynightismusicnight 🎼

An evening of truly wonderful choral music with @UlsterOrchestra and the excellent @BelfPhil (all 120 of them) performing Dvorak's monumental Stabat Mater - no music more fitting for Good Friday! @maevefisher1
