We're Back!
July 2021 Sheffield Things are looking up... The sun is out and there is at last a possibility to perform again in October. We're kicking off our new season with Mozart, Rameau and Schubert, including music from Les Indes galantes - a story of love in exotic climes... Peru, the Ottoman Empire and Persia. Mozart's wholly original Symphony No. 40 and the Symphony No. 5 by Schubert, his loveliest, sunniest symphony, mark a joyous return to Sheffield Cathedral! |

Support from the Kurt Weill Foundation
April 2021 New York, US We are very excited to have received financial support from the Kurt Weill Foundation for our performance of Weill's Symphonic Nocturne in our Jazz Origins programme at the Sheffield City Hall in June 2022! Also on the programme is Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue with pianist Christopher Devine, as well as a rare performance of William Grant Still's Afro-American Symphony No. 1. |

COVID Restrictions
October 2020 Sheffield We are sorry all our plans for this autumn cannot go ahead with current COVID restrictions. But, we wanted you to know...this is just a rest and not the finale. |

Baby Steps
July 2020 Sheffield We hope you are well and have not been too affected by the pandemic. We wanted you to know we are still alive and well, and are taking some first steps to rearrange our upcoming concert season. It won’t be quite the same, but great music will be coming your way soon... |

First Listen
March 2020 Cathedral, Sheffield The encore caused quite a stir of interest at our concert on Saturday. It was Malcolm Sargent’s miniature “Valsette” and our conductor was the first to direct it in concert since the composer himself! What a privilege! |
