Welcome

Our next concert is at Martin Harris Centre, University of Manchester on Sunday 7th November 2010

Stockport Youth Orchestra was formed in 1956 and since that time has gained an enviable reputation not only for quality concerts but also for the range of opportunities and high standard in the training of young musicians in the art of orchestral playing.

There are three orchestras within our organisation. The Symphony Orchestra is for more experienced players, whilst the Sinfonia caters for players who have not been in a full Symphony Orchestra before. Finally, the Sinfonietta is our group for players making their debut into the world of orchestral music. From September 2010, Sinfonietta will be accepting wind and brass players as well as string players.

The orchestras meet each Friday in term time at the Curzon Building of the Offerton School Campus, Offerton, and are coached by experienced professional musicians.

The Musical Director is Tim Crooks and Sinead Hayes is the Assistant Director.
