The orchestra was formed in the autumn of 2004 to play larger scale and more adventurous works specifically arranged or composed for the orchestral format.
We play a range of music, enjoying arrangements of orchestral works, and modern works written specifically for recorder orchestra of which there are an increasing number, by composers like Steve Marshall, Dietrich Schnabel and John Hawkes.
Members come from all over Devon, Cornwall and Dorset, and from the Bristol area: we are keen to increase our numbers, and welcome new players of a good standard. Bass, Great Bass and Contrabass players are especially welcome. If you would like to be considered please contact or ring 01392 275653 or 01392 491425
We rehearse on the third Saturday of each month (usually - this may vary, but the calendar is arranged well in advance) in Exeter from 10am - 1pm.
We meet in St James Church Hall, Prince Charles Rd, Exeter - click here for a map
