Celebrating our 40th year

We have started our 40th birthday year with a bang! Our first concert of the year "Love is in the Air" took place on 23 March 2024, and we were delighted to play to a packed audience. Repertoire included Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture (Tchaikovsky), Peer Gynt Suite selection (Grieg), as well as works by Ian Hÿtch, Mascagni, da Falla, and Mahler.

Coming up next is our Summer Concert on 29 June 2024, which will be a special celebration to mark the 40th Anniversary of Wymondham Symphony Orchestra! It also falls on the year that the composer Anton Bruckner would have celebrated his 200th birthday, so our summer concert will feature his popular Symphony 4 (The Romantic). The programme will also feature Little Suite no.2 by Arnold and Violin Concerto in E minor by Mendelssohn, for which we are delighted to welcome our soloist Catherine McCardel.

Do come and join us for what promises to be a really exciting year!

Wymondham Symphony Orchestra...

 is a friendly, lively and ambitious group of musicians that plays regular concerts at a variety of locations within the Norfolk area. We have received much critical acclaim for our sensitive and involving perfomances.

 We attract members from all walks of life and provide them with the satisfaction of playing in an ensemble that has the skill and confidence to play exciting and demanding works.

We have built up an enviable reputation, and are able to attract professional soloists of the highest calibre. We also encourage young talented soloists from Norfolk to play with us, often their first concerto with a symphony orchestra.

Generally, we play three concerts a year, although we occasionally undertake additional events. We also hold an annual Open Rehearsal (see the Rehearsals page for more details) and have regular social events. It’s not just about making music - we also like to have fun!
