About Us

We are a community orchestra based in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, UK. We have about 40 regular members who come from all walks of life and who have a wide range of musical experiences.

We emphasise the fun and enjoyment of making music and so do not require minimum grade levels or auditions for new members. As a consequence, we welcome new players of all ages and abilities who would like to join us to make music.

The following quote sums us and our members up perfectly .....
"Study after study has shown that active arts participation, at whatever level of incompetence, relieves work and domestic anxieties, stimulates the mind, builds community spirit, and friendship circles, and increases feelings of self-fulfilment and purpose." 
Richard Morrison, music critic of 'The Times
