Welcome

The 2020/21 season is the Brent Symphony Orchestra’s 110th year. We aspire to perform the finest orchestral music, bringing together pieces you may well have heard of, together with something new. Recent concerts have featured symphonies by Elgar, Bruckner, Mahler, Nielsen and Vaughan Williams; concertos by Sibelius and Strauss and also work by Bernstein, Mozart, Ravel and Stravinsky.

If you would like to be the first to hear about our events, please sign up to our mailing list.

We are back!

The COVID-19 outbreak is affecting us all, and all in different ways. For Brent, it meant the first cancelled concert in over a century in June 2020. We started full rehearsals on the 19th of May and in lieu of a formal concert are having a special ‘playthrough afternoon’ for the orchestra and BSO friends.

Seeking Musicians

If you are a friendly musician looking to join an exciting and ambitious orchestra in North London, please do get in touch. We have vacancies for a Trombonist and Double bass players. We’re always pleased to hear from instrumentalists, especially brass and string players keen to play with us.

For more information about joining the orchestra see the Join Us page.

Friends of Brent Symphony Orchestra

We have a Friends of Brent Symphony Orchestra scheme which helps to continue the development of the orchestra and allows our audiences to enjoy new and exciting programmes and soloists, while at the same time coping with the rising costs of putting on concerts.

We are really grateful to our Friends who are helping us achieve this and if you would like to join and get a FREE concert ticket, please see the Support Us page.
