HUNDREDS of young musicians gathered at Darlington's Dolphin Centre last night to take part in a Promenade for Youth Concert.
The concert featured the Durham First Orchestra combined with the Durham District Orchestra. They were joined by the Darlington Folk Fiddler Group and the North Face Barber Shop Quartet.
Two young soloists completed the musical line-up. One was Rebecca Topping, who won the pianoforte section of the Darlington and Northallerton Rotary Young Musician of the Year competition.
The other was Eleanor Firth, a Darlington Sixth Form College student and a member of the Carol Andrew Singers.
The concert, which is in its third year, featured a hundred youth and school musicians. It is sponsored by Cummins Engines.
The performance will be followed tonight by a Last Night of the Proms concert at the Dolphin Centre, at 7pm.
