Symphony Orchestra
We are a full-size Symphony Orchestra taking on a broad range of challenging repertoire, which are presented in termly concerts, as well as the annual production of UCOpera in Term 2. We have played pieces such as Mendelssohn's 5th, Beethoven's Egmont Overture, and choral works by Mozart, Fauré and Handel with the Symphony Chorus. The orchestra is reauditioned every year to provide equal opportunity. It’s a great opportunity to meet like-minded musicians and challenge yourself by playing diverse repertoire!
Rehearsals : Mondays from 18:30-21:00
Auditions
The audition consists of playing a 5 minute prepared piece of your choosing, and a short extract of sight-reading. The solo piece should be around the standard of ABRSM Grade 8 or equivalent, preferably minimum grade 8. If you are a percussionist, you just need to send us an email with your experience!
