DESCRIPTION
We're a for-fun organisation of Edinburgh-area amateur musicians who like to get together Thursday nights for a bit of playing. We've been around since 1995. We work up two concerts every year - but we meet mostly just to play.
We welcome all abilities, all ages, and all backgrounds - anyone who can handle grade 3 or 4 on up - and we hold no auditions, ever.
Our musical focus varies from orchestral favourites like Sibelius's Finlandia and the March to the Scaffold from Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique to smaller works for soloists, such as Mozart's 4th horn concerto, immortalised in Flanders & Swann's affectionate pastiche Ill Wind.
We have recently performed the Toy Symphony (with audience participation), Anna Clyne's Night Ferry and music by Mozart, Amy Beach and Hector Berlioz, to name a few.
