G Live has today announced the 2025/2026 Guildford International Concert Season.
The Guildford Season opens on 18 October 2025, when Royal Philharmonic Orchestra join forces with acclaimed pianist Boris Giltburg for an evening of soaring melodies and musical drama to one of the world’s best-loved show pieces, Grieg’s Piano Concerto. The Orchestra return for a trio of concerts this season including the likes of Elgar: Enigma Variations (7 Apr) and a programme of masterworks by Dvorak, Mendelssohn and Beethoven (29 May) for the last concert of the season.
Other concerts in the season come from renowned international orchestras including Malta Philharmonic Orchestra (11 Nov) performing Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No.5, Czech Janacek Philharmonic (13 Feb) who bring Bruch’s Violin Concerto to life under the guise of Daniel Raiskin and the return of National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine (18 Mar) with Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5 ‘The Emperor’.
G Live is delighted to welcome, for a third year, The Cheryl King Trust as the Guildford International Season’s charity partner. The Cheryl King Trust aims to remove the financial barriers that prevent young people in Surrey learning a musical instrument. Providing bursaries for instrument and singing lessons, as well as grants to local music ensembles, G Live hopes to shine a spotlight on their work, and to inspire more young people across Surrey to experience the joy of making music.
Venue Director, Christina Horsepool, said:
“Featuring a captivating mix of orchestral performances and acclaimed soloists from across the globe, we look forward to continuing delighting our audiences with this upcoming Guildford International Concert Season. We are thrilled and proud to extend our partnership with The Cheryl King Trust, supporting young people across Surrey to get the opportunity to discover and learn music, regardless of their financial
circumstances.”
G Live, one of 20 venues operated by Trafalgar Theatres (part of the Trafalgar Entertainment Group), gratefully acknowledges the continued support of Guildford Borough Council.
