Future Yard presents London-based prog rock band – The Orchestra (For Now).
Following the release of their latest EP, Plan 76 , released in October of last year, saw The Orchestra (For Now) continuing to develop on their maximalist approach to what they have self-described as “London prog”, combining avant-garde rock theatrics, intricate classical interplay, pastoral baroque indie, post-hardcore dynamics, jazz-tinted freakouts, and everything in between. The elements that made their debut a breakthrough success are still there, the compositions unpredictable yet unmistakably hook infused, and there are the droll references to pop culture and the world surrounding them, but everything is levelled up, the underpinning fragility wrapped in a shroud of musical confidence that can only come with such wide-eyed ambition.
The last couple of years have seen the band on the kind of ascent that most new acts can only dream of. The Orchestra (for now) have several accolades behind them such as: playing the main stage at Green Man Festival, appeared at End Of The Road Festival, and played several sold-out headline dates before even officially releasing a single. The band sold out the Rough Trade exclusive version of their EP in less than 12 hours, earned widespread plaudits from the likes of NME, DIY, Rolling Stone, So Young, Clash, DORK, and Billboard, and sold-out their release show at London’s Institute of Contemporary Arts.
The band rounded off 2025 by selling out their first ever UK run of headline dates, with more dates lined up for 2026 as well as a much anticipated return to the studio, with their debut album in their sights.

Programme:
Schubert Overture, Die Zauberharfe (Rosamunde), Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto No.1, Bruckner Symphony No.6
Featuring:
Domingo Hindoyan conductor, Guy Johnston cello
There’s something special about the music of Anton Bruckner – his huge symphonies create a world of towering peaks and glowing vistas that speaks straight to the soul. For Domingo Hindoyan, Bruckner’s symphonies are a passion – “so poetic, so suffused with fresh air, so free in spirit” wrote one critic – and the Sixth Symphony might be the most beautiful of them all. But judge for yourself – and enjoy, too, the sheer flair of British cellist Guy Johnston in Saint-Saëns’ ardent concerto.
Programme:
Anna Clyne Within Her Arms, John Adams Shaker Loops, Julia Perry A Short Piece for Orchestra, Mathilde Wantenaar Serenade (UK premiere), Aaron Breeze The Haçienda (world premiere)
Chloe Rooke conductor
A tapestry of contrast. A whole spectrum of colour. In her Ensemble 10:10 debut, Chloe Rooke pairs John Adams’ ecstatic masterpiece with Anna Clyne’s fragile, yet hauntingly powerful, lament. We see the energy of musical trailblazer Julia Perry captured in gritty, pulsating lyricism, before Mathilde Wantenaar’s creation, serene and enchanting, restores calm – for now. But the night is young, so Aaron Breeze – Highly Commended in the 2024 Rushworth Composition Prize – conjures up a snapshot of a night at a famous club.
