After becoming infatuated with the theatre, anxiety has taken the backseat in dominating my life as I push out of my comfort zone, travel to new places and realized that being on your own isn't all that bad. 

The Golden Age of 90s wasn’t just iconic - it was influential. Ranging from the impressive grunge scene to the birth of the Millenials, here are 10 songs that reflect a decade of fun and progression, and for many, a trip down memory lane.

A decade that had almost everything - big hair, neon lights, synth pop, ballads, Michael Jackson, double denim (ew), shell suits (EWW), MTV and the birth of CDs! Above all else was the music that continues to be loved by many - here are 10 songs that hit us hard with the 1980’s nostalgia.

Join the CRSO for an exciting programme of American classics, ranging from Copland's famous Fanfare to the Common Man to John Williams's exhilarating score for Steven Spielberg's 1982 film "E.T. The Extra Terrestrial". John Adams's brilliant Short Ride in a Fast Machine is part of the BBC's "Ten Pieces" project, and is paired with Adams's highly entertaining Lollapalooza. We could not, of course, present an American programme without some wonderful works by Gershwin; the ever-popular Rhapsody in Blue and colourful An American in Paris complete a thrilling programme.

This concert is part of the CRSO's Arts Award Supporter offer for activities at the Discover, Explore, Bronze and Silver award levels.
