Starting the new season with a bang

We were delighted to welcome a full house to Wymondham Abbey Church back in November to celebrate our first concert with our new musical director, Theo Vinden! The support offered by the local community is always fantastic and we can't wait to share this new chapter in our development with you over the coming season (and new year).

The Spring concert on 21 March 2026 will feature new challenges in the shape of Rachmaninoff's 2nd Symphony - lot's of practise has already been taking place at home over Christmas and the first rehearsal on 13th January was an exciting harbinger of things to come. To accompany the Rachmaninoff, we will also feature English Dances Set 1 by Malcom Arnold, and Concertino for Flute by Cecile Chaminade. The solosit for the concertino will be Leila Hooton, who has local connections with her roles as the Pastoral and Operations Assistant for Guildhall Young Artists Norwich, and Assistant to the Norfolk County Youth Orchestra (among many other impressive accolades).

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!
