Music City Connections: The Ulster Orchestra and Guests

Dana Masters introduces the Ulster Orchestra performing with Niamh Dunne, Jordan Adetunji and Dani Larkin.

Presented by Dana Masters

As Belfast celebrates its new status as the latest Unesco City of Music, we salute the city’s vibrant culture and thriving musical diversity in the company of the Ulster Orchestra and guests.

Featuring a variety of local performance spaces, from the historic Titanic Drawing Offices to Belfast's oldest standing church, on Shankill Road.

Performing with the orchestra are Niamh Dunne, Jordan Adetunji and Dani Larkin. Aside from the guest appearances, we also see the Ulster Orchestra perform everything from the music of John Williams, through to the full symphonic glory of the Louise Farrenc Overture, all under the baton of their world-acclaimed music director, Daniele Rustioni.

Music City Connections takes you on an orchestral journey celebrating a place that punches well above its weight creatively, while offering musical delights from classical to ragtime, and hip-hop to trad.
