Saturday Morning Orchestra (SMO)

Saturday Morning Orchestra (SMO) A rehearsal only amateur orchestra which meets every Saturday morning from 10:00 - 12:30 with a tea-break

We rehearse and perform mainly for our own pleasure, but at the end of each term we hold open rehearsal for 'friends and loved ones' and over the past years have given occasional concerts for charities, including the International Spinal Research Trust and Save the Children.

o Franck “Les Éolides”

We’re starting the new term this Saturday (18th April) and this would be a great time for any new players who are interested in joining to get in touch!

We would like more players of all string instruments and ideally an additional trumpet and two more horn players.

This term we will be rehearsing
o Mendelssohn Symphony No 3 “Scottish”
o Franck “Les Eolides”
o Saint-Saëns Suite for Orchestra
