Join us for a mid-summer’s evening of exceptional classical music in the Carlton, where guests will enjoy performances in an elegant setting with direct access to the terrace and garden. Weather permitting, the evening flows outdoors, creating a relaxed summer atmosphere in a beautiful setting.

In partnership with YCAT (Young Classical Artists Trust), this special concert celebrates and supports outstanding early-career musicians. YCAT is a UK charity dedicated to nurturing emerging talent, providing the guidance and management needed to build world-class careers. Over the past 40 years, it has helped launch the careers of many of today’s most celebrated artists, including Alison Balsom, Ian Bostridge, the Belcea, Doric and Heath String Quartets, as well as BBC Young Musicians such as Jess Gillam, Sheku Kanneh-Mason and recent winner Ryan Wang.

The evening features performances by two of YCAT’s newest rising stars, pianist and Classic FM Rising Star Kasparas Mikužis and guitarist Samrat Majumder. Both are award-winning artists gaining international recognition, with appearances at some of Europe’s most prestigious venues. Their specially curated programme promises an evening of music to delight and inspire, alongside the opportunity to learn more about YCAT’s work and its impact on young artists.

Your ticket includes a welcome glass of Searcys sparkling wine, access to the concert and post-concert summer food stalls as well as a donation to YCAT. A cash bar will also be available throughout the evening.
