Welcome to Our Website!
Whether you would like to experience the joys of playing interesting music with other like-minded people or book us for a function we have an orchestra or band to suit your needs.
Our aim is to make music fun and enjoyable both to play and listen to, while at the same time improving the standard of the musicians involved. Making music accessible to all, young and old, we strive to produce an interesting repertoire of well known classical pieces, light music, movie and TV themes, and swing.
We love to perform for special events such as Last Night of the Proms, 40’s nights and swing nights, so if you are thinking of putting on such an event please get in touch and we will be happy to select a programme for you. Or if you have a charity and would like some help in raising funds we are here to help.
Every other year, the wind orchestra and concert band combine to perform concerts abroad, so far travelling to Germany, Belgium and Holland, with our next tour taking place this August over the bank holiday. We will be performing three concerts, two in Holland, one in Germany. Going on tour is a great experience and a chance to get to know fellow musicians.

For the Wind Orchestra, we have vacancies for a Bassoon, and 2nd Trombone, with three clarinet vacancies becoming available soon. Musicians on other instruments are welcome to apply.
We would also like to hear from experienced musicians who would be able to help when some of our musicians are unable to play for a concert.
