Shropshire Youth Orchestra with New College Chorale

The Pops orchestra is one of the Shropshire Music Service’s most experienced and leading ensembles.  The orchestra works largely on film scores and so offers a much wider repertoire than is usual for an enlarged symphony orchestra, as it is augmented with larger brass and woodwind sections and a full percussion section and keyboards. 

The Pops Orchestra had a great first rehearsal at

Longmeadow
School. The next rehearsals are on 20th Jan and 17th Feb   Concerts on 14th &16th March. Repertoire includes Thunderbirds, West Side Story `Symphonic Suite’ and Theme from `Narnia’. More players are very welcome to join us.  Contact Alan Atkin via the office for more details.

A new area ensemble called ‘PONTSEMBLE’ aimed mainly at new players, will meet during term time 4.00-5.00 on Mondays starting on 12 November in the Performing Arts Studio at Mary Webb School. Registration forms are available from Glenn Pollard via the Music Service Office.
