An evening celebration headlined by a specially created Anniversary Orchestra and Choir, featuring Centre for Young Musicians alumni performing alongside current students.

In 2020 CYM will turn 50 and in 2021 the LSSO will turn 70. We now have an opportunity through the anniversaries of both of these incredible organisations to shine a spotlight on 120 years of combined youth music making in London through our 'Young at Heart' appeal. 
Our Target is to raise £1 million by 2021 to provide bursaries to give exceptional musical opportunities to another 1,000 talented young Londoners. 

CYM's 50th Anniversary Gala is the first of our celebrations as part of the appeal. To find out more please visit: www.cym.org.uk/young-at-heart
