I have been musical director of this group since September 2017. The orchestra is open to anyone on any instrument. We play a wide variety of music and give occasional performances.

Improvisation - workshops which enable everyone to experiment with improvisation in a safe environment and to develop confidence and fluency in music-making.

Mixed instrumental ensembles - working with any combination of instrumentalists, at any level of ability and experience, creating arrangements of music which enable them to perform together.
