The Regional Orchestra's annual concerts will begin this weekend (Saturday 4 November), and our members are raring to go!
Remember, remember, the fifth of November… There’s no reason why you shouldn’t remember this weekend if you’re planning to celebrate with the NCO South Westerlies, Northerlies or South Easterlies Regional Orchestras. The amazing young musicians will be performing dazzling displays of music on Saturday 4 November and Sunday 5 November.
These events kick-start the annual concerts which give our Regional Orchestra members the opportunity to sparkle and shine as they perform for family and friends and show off what they've been learning over the past year of rehearsals. It’s been 290 days since our first rehearsal of 2017, and the six orchestras have been working incredibly hard with their dedicated teams of conductors, music support staff and parent volunteers. Good luck to you all!
See full concert listings below but please note these concerts are for family and friends of the orchestra members and NCO staff only and tickets must be booked in advance.
