String Orchestra

Welcome to the University of Warwick String Orchestra! We are a relaxed, unauditioned orchestra playing a wide variety of music. If you play a string instrument - be it the Violin, Viola, Cello or Double Bass, this is the society for you.

String Orchestra was set up to increase the opportunity for string players to play together in a friendly environment. We enjoy playing music together and aspire to improve as individuals and as an ensemble. We have weekly rehearsals in which we play a large range of pieces. Recent repertoire included a John Williams Medley, Bartok's Romanian Folk Dances, Mozart's Divertimento and many more. We also love receiving suggestions for music from members!

Our concerts take place once a term and often happen in the Warwick Arts Centre atrium on campus. It's a great atmosphere and way for us to showcase what we have been practicing.

Socials are organised during the year and include meals out, coffee mornings, concert trips together and the Music Centre Ball, so there is something to suit everyone!

Rehearsals are on Thursdays 5-7pm in the Helen Martin Studio, inside the Warwick Arts Centre.
