Celebrating 87 years of orchestral music-making
The Farnborough Symphony Orchestra serves the local community in North East Hampshire and is supported by organizations active in the district, including Rushmoor Borough Council and Slough Estates (the developers of the Farnborough Heritage Site). It aims to perform a varied programme of orchestral music to a high standard and provide its members with the opportunity to play a symphonic repertoire under a professional conductor.
Founded in 1922 as the Royal Aircraft Establishment Orchestral Society, it has a long history of performing in the local area and currently presents four concerts each season. Programmes often feature young soloists at the outset of their careers, or established artists.
Rehearsals are held on Thursday evenings in Wesley Hall, Farnborough, Hampshire. Membership, subject to requirements, is open to all amateur players of Grade 8 standard or higher.
The F.S.O. is affiliated
to "Making Music" and is a registered charity (number 293178) proudly supported by
