We are excited to present the first concert of the Royal Holloway Strings Society which was established in January 2024. The concert features works by British composers such as Britten and Finzi, with chamber music from Mendelssohn and Schubert, as well as a composition by one of their very own members! They will showcase the talents of their String Orchestra, chamber groups and collaborations with singers.
