Autumn Gala Concert Review

A Spectacular Evening of Music.

Allum Manor & Hall, Borehamwood

Sunday 28th September 2025 | 7:30pm

An unforgettable evening with the Elstree Mozart Players (EMP), conducted by Derek Holland, and featuring internationally renowned guest conductor Owain Arwel Hughes.

The concert dazzled with a rich and varied programme, from stirring orchestral works to operatic favourites.

A true highlight was the performance by international opera star Janice Watson, who captivated the audience with arias by Bach, Dvořák, Puccini and Delibes.

She was joined by Elizabeth Venner in the beloved Flower Duet from Lakmé and a charming Mozart duet from The Marriage of Figaro.

Dylan Lehner gave a virtuosic performance of Malcolm Arnold’s Trumpet Concerto, and Juliet Maclean shone in a moving cello solo from John Foulds’ Keltic Lament.

The orchestra’s versatility was on full display, from dramatic film scores (Aces High by Ron Goodwin) to lyrical miniatures like The Watermill and La Calinda.

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful audience – together, we raised £450 in support of Prostate Cancer UK and Breast Cancer Now, in association with the Rotary Club of The Studios of Elstree and Borehamwood.

A night of incredible music, international talent, and community spirit.

Thank you to all who joined us!
