Join Chetham’s staff Stephen Threlfall and Stuart Overington, as well as the Gorton Philharmonic and current Chetham’s students, as we mark the 200th Anniversary of the Peterloo Massacre in collaboration with The Bridgewater Hall.

For this event participants must be 16 years of age or older. We recommend that instrumentalists have a playing ability of grade 6 and over. Singers should be able to read music.
