Sheffield Chamber Orchestra welcomes new members, subject to available vacancies.
What to expect
Rehearsals
There are usually 6 or 7 rehearsals prior to each concert, and on the day of the concert an afternoon rehearsal is held at the concert venue. Rehearsals are taken seriously, but they are also friendly occasions – full of goodwill and humour.
