The KZN Philharmonic Orchestra proudly presents the annual National Youth Concerto Festival on September 24. The festival forms part of the Celebrate Durban festivities and features the cream of young South African musicians. Eight young artists were selected from 60 candidates who auditioned at five centres around the country.
