This Wednesday – Scottish Violinist Nicola Benedetti will lead a charity concert in Dundee

This Wednesday (December 19) violinist sensation Nicola Benedetti will lead a concert at the Caird Hall in celebration of Dundee’s Symphony’s Orchestra’s 125th Anniversary.
The event will raise funds for the incredible children’s charity, Big Noise Douglas. This charity – set up in Dundee by Optimistic Sound and Sistema Scotland – aims to improve the lives of young people living in deprived areas through the art of music.
The concert will also raise funds for Tenovus Medical Research.
With just a few days to go until the big day, concert organisers have revealed that the evening’s entertainment will now open with an extra special performance by over 30 children from Big Noise Douglas (pictured in the Instagram shot above).

When asked about her upcoming Dundee performance, Benedetti said:
I am delighted to be a part of the birthday celebrations of the Dundee Symphony Orchestra. 125 years is a great achievement. It is also wonderful to give a platform to some of the children from Big Noise Douglas who work so hard and grow in confidence through their engagement with the programme.
