- Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in Barrow-in-Furness
Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in Barrow-in-Furness
Over the next three years, we’re thrilled to be bringing all that we do to Barrow-in-Furness.
Working in collaboration with a wide range of fantastic partners including The Forum, BarrowFull, Cumbria Music Education Hub, North West Music Academy, Westmorland & Furness Council, and with the support of Arts Council England we’ll be bringing something for everyone, whether you’re a fan of classical music or this is your first time hearing an orchestra.
The Orchestra and Chief Conductor Domingo Hindoyan will be bringing you a stunning selection of show-stopping performances and inspirational music-making projects. There’ll also be events specially designed for under-5s, chamber music concerts, dementia-friendly performances, and collaborations with local arts organisations.
And that's not all - we're putting together a youth programme that'll grow every year, working with teachers across Barrow to enrich music education through workshops and live performances in schools.
You can catch us all around town – The Forum, Barrow Town Hall, Barrow Library, St Mary of Furness Church and yet to be revealed pop-up locations – so come along and get involved. We can’t wait to see you.

Thelma Handy director
Captivating landscapes, a whole world of emotions… Expect pure poetry in sound as Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra violinist Thelma Handy leads a group of Orchestra musicians in a feast of the finest works for strings. When Puccini learned of the death of a dear friend, he wrote his heartbreaking I Crisantemi in a flood of inspiration and emotion in just one night, and today it sits alongside Tchaikovsky’s iconic Serenade: heartfelt, graceful and often heralded as the best music he ever composed. We’ll also hear folk-inspired works from Rutter and Bridge, and a sweet symphony Mendelssohn wrote as an ode to composers who came before.
