More about us

 

Orchestra exists to serve the local community and to give playing opportunitiues for all musicians who enjoy playing in an ensemble. We have a policy of welcoming anyone without the requirement of an audition and we maintain no restrictions on section size within the orchestra. However at the discretion of the Musical Director, we may occasionally have to operate a waiting list for certain oversubscribed instruments.

come to a rehearsal

 

A great way to find out more about us. We rehearse most Wedensday evenings at Wootey's Junior School in Alton. Our music repertoire is wide and varied to suit all tastes and ranges from classical symphonies to show music incorporating big band and swing. Whatever your musical taste it should be well provided for. Contact our Membership Secretary if you would like to come to a rehearsal and try playing with the orchestra.
