OPEN AUDITIONS

Brixton Chamber Orchestra is recruiting voluntary players! 
We regularly invite our volunteer base to join our professional principals and play side-by-side in full-orchestral concerts.

We want the best amateur instrumentalists in South London to join BCO for projects like:

Lambeth Country Show  |  Summer & Christmas Estates Tours 

Opera Gala Concerts  |  Gospel Music Collaborations  |  Music Trails

NO SUBS!

NO WEEKLY REHEARSAL (ALL PROJECT-BASED)

APPROX. 5 PROJECTS PER YEAR

VARIED PERFORMANCES AND REPERTOIRE

HIGH QUALITY ENSEMBLE AND MUSIC

 

Our performances and repertoire are as diverse as our musicians and audience. From Classical to Grime, Folk to Funk, Disco, Drill, Reggae, Rock, Afrobeat, Jazz, Pop, you name it, we play it.

We perform in halls, churches, pubs, clubs, cinemas, parks, community centres, markets… all over.

If you’re a talented instrumentalist with orchestral experience and passion for performance and community,

we want to hear from you. Auditions will take place on Thursday 13sth October 4-9pm at St. Michael's Church, 56 Stockwell Park Rd, London SW9 0DA.

We ask you to bring a classical piece at least 3 minutes long, and you can bring something else too in any musical style. We’ll also send you an excerpt a week in advance to prepare. As a guideline, successful applicants will play to a grade 8 standard.
