Concert 5 december 2021
The LJSO winter concerts were scheduled for December 5 in theater Kerkrade theater and December 12 in the Muziekgieterij in Maastricht. The concert in the Muziekgieterij has been canceled due to the Corona measures. The concert in theater Kerkrade did take place. After 20 months we were finally able to perform the rehearsed program including the 8th symphony by Antonin Dvorak in front of a very enthusiastic audience.

The Limburgs Jeugd Symfonie Orkest is proud to announce violinist and first concertmaster of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Vesko Eschkenazy has become one of the ambassadors of the LJSO.

Concert Thorn
On Sunday 11 July, the Limburgs Jeugd Symfonie Orkest performed during the opening concert of the Open Air Theater Thorn. Despite the short preparation time, the brass and woodwind ensemble were able to present a beautiful concert including the Serenade by Antonin Dvořák. A year later than planned, the concert took place with beautiful weather, a sold-out theater and an enthusiastic audience. Thanks to the Open Air Theater Thorn, Samuel our conductor and of course our musicians!
