READING’S Aldworth Philharmonic will pass the stage to professional freelance
musicians at The Hexagon this Saturday.
In April last year, APO launched a crowdfunding campaign to support freelancers who
normally come in to boost the ranks in a non-professional concert.
Having raised over £15,000, the money enables musicians to be paid an advance for a
concert taking place in the future.
