Brass players on the cusp of their careers perform with their musical role models on stage.

Rising Stars gives the world’s most promising young musicians a chance to shine on an international stage.

This edition of our Rising Stars concerts focuses on brass players on the cusp of their careers, nurtured and inspired by role models from their chosen field.

An outstanding ensemble of emerging musicians specialising in brass join their mentors, Christopher Hart, principal trumpet of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and trumpeter Aaron Akugbo, who recently made his career breakthrough.
