Sadly, it is now highly unlikely that we
will be able to perform a concert to an
audience in November. However, the
Committee is determined to resume
some form of music-making in
September To this end, following
detailed discussions with our
conductor, Robert Baxter, we plan to
hold virtual rehearsals this term.
These will take the form of Zoom
meetings, each of which will last
roughly 40 minutes and will involved
different sections of the orchestra.
Click on the button below to go to our
rehearsals page, where you will see the
proposed schedule of rehearsals, which
will start on Tuesday 8 September.
