The most recent #LeedsSymphonyOrchestra concert has had a write-up. I fear the headline is a tad misleading, given the potential for real drama granted by the venue's proximity to the local Air Ambulance landing pad

Sheet music laid out on a music stand. Double bass parts for Saint-Saens's third ("organ") symphony, Hindemith Symphonic Metamorphoses, and Copland's Billy the Kid ballet suite.

It's a lot, but it's better than being bored.
Some old favourites:

Rheinberger's Nonet

Bernard's Divertissement.
And a new one:
I enjoyed playing Bantock's Hebridean Symphony with #LeedsSymphonyOrchestra last month. Great fun to do something new (to me)
Following on from the weekend's concert, we have new music at #LeedsSymphonyOrchestra - Emilie Mayer's "Faust overture", Amy Beach's symphony in E minor. The third piece, not yet in our packs, is Clara Schumann's piano concerto.
An all-female composer programme for our concert on #IWD2025
