MANCHESTER MID-DAY CONCERTS SOCIETY 2008/2009 SEASON at THE BRIDGEWATER HALL Welcome to the 2008-2009 series of Manchester Mid-day concerts at the Bridgewater Hall. The new season opens on Wednesday 17 September at 1.10pm with two talented young artists chosen this year from the Society’s annual auditions scheme. This year eight concerts in all will showcase successful candidates who impressed our Director of Concerts, Paul Hindmarsh and his panel of judges. Once again there are two mini-series of co-promotions with BBC Radio 3, including four concerts featuring young musicians selected for the prestigious BBC New Generation Artists’ Scheme. This year we are delighted to present the Terence Judd Award international piano competition as part of the Manchester Mid-day season in co-promotion with the Bridgewater Hall and Hallé Concerts Society. The event will take place over three days during which finalists will each give a lunchtime recital. Discounted tickets are available to those attending all three recitals and full information is available from the box office. In support of the Society’s commitment to young artists we shall once again host two Young Concert Artists’ Trust Presentation Concerts and to complete the season there will be a colourful mix of more established artists including Wayne Marshall, Martin Roscoe, Peter Donohoe, John McCabe and many others who are well known to Manchester audiences. The Manchester Mid-day Concerts Society is the largest and probably the most successful lunchtime series in the country and has run since 1917. If you are interested in supporting the Society into the future please contact:- Carolyn Howlett, The Administrator, Cherry Trees, 19 Church Street, Carlton le Moorland, Lincoln LN5 9HR.
