'We are a passionate group of players with the skill and experience to deliver high-energy and emotional performances. The bottom line is that we love what we do and our mission is to inspire you, whether you are a seasoned concert-goer or new to classical music. Our commitment to programming well known works, alongside lesser known but equally beautiful pieces, will open doors into a new world of music with no holds barred. From Mozart to MacMillan and beyond.'
Who are our players?
We have diverse musical interests: as well as performing regularly in the West End in shows such as Top Hat and Elf, members have worked with an impressive array of ensembles including BBC Concert Orchestra, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Birmingham Royal Ballet, Palau de les arts, and London Mozart players. In addition players have toured with Sting, Elton John, Emeli Sande, Bryn Terfel and regularly record with artists such as Dizzee Rascal and Jamie Cullum.
We offer Education/Outreach projects which include performance opportunities for younger players in Side by Side concerts and workshops for children and adults. The Westminster Chamber Orchestra supports the National Preparatory Schools Orchestra Courses by working alongside the children during week-long Summer courses and providing bursaries.
