We usually hold an orchestral workshop once a year in which we play something that we would not normally play in a concert, usually a major work that requires a large orchestra and is not often played by amateur orchestras. In recent workshops we have had an orchestra of around 100 players, drawn from a wide area. We welcome enquiries from non-members and try to provide opportunity for as many as possible to play. We sometimes hold specialist strings or wind workshops too.
