Celebrating our 40th year

We hope everyone enjoyed our Summer Concert on 29 June 2024, which was a special celebration to mark the 40th Anniversary of Wymondham Symphony Orchestra! It fell on the year that the composer Anton Bruckner would have celebrated his 200th birthday, so our summer concert featured his popular Symphony 4 (The Romantic). The programme also featured Little Suite no.2 by Arnold and Violin Concerto in E minor by Mendelssohn, for which we were delighted to welcome our local soloist Catherine McCardel.

Coming up next is our Autumn Concert on 16 November 2024. The programme will consist of Sibelius’ popular Karelia Suite. We will also be playing the Egmont Overture by Beethoven and Symphony No 5 by Shostakovich.

Keep an eye out as well for our exciting Christmas Concert on 8 December 2025 where we will be joined by the wonderful Browick Road School for an afternoon of fun and seasonal songs.

Do come and join us for the final events of our 40th birthday 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!
