'Marvels of Saudi Orchestra' set to perform in London

An event not to be missed, musicians and singers are set to perform a variety of musical works that reflect the cultural heritage and artistic diversity of music in Saudi Arabia. In collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra with special guest Dame Sarah Connolly DBE, the performers will delight the audience with a distinctive mix of Saudi and British music, fusing East and West.

The London performance will include joint and solo performances, as well as a musical finale. The Saudi National Orchestra and Choir have enchanted fans around the world by performing local music in their repertoire and giving it a unique and distinctive Saudi twist.
