North Devon'S Symphony Orchestra
Registered Charity Number 1203900
We welcome new players
We are an orchestra of amateur musicians from around the North Devon area, although our members come from as far afield as North Cornwall and Somerset. We usually rehearse on Sundays at West Buckland school, with usually 5 rehearsals before each concert.
We are always looking for new players. If you're interested then get in touch!
We aim to play a wide variety of orchestral music
- Some that audiences will easily relate to
- Some that challenges us as players
- Some that should be better known
- To include as many players as possible
We aim to introduce music to new audiences
- Partly through the repertoire
- But also by playing in different venues across the area
- And finding ways to make concerts more engaging
- We will particularly try to perform in ways that children can enjoy
We aim to become better players
- We will look for repertoire that helps us do this
- We will rehearse in ways that encourage this
- We will include up and coming musicians as early as possible
We aim to encourage sociability
- Both within the orchestra
- And also for and with our audiences
