The Norfolk Symphony Orchestra
(leader: Jane Foottit)
Conductor: James Stobart
The NSO rehearsing with Sarah Beth Briggs
The Norfolk Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1971 and, over the last 35 years, has developed from a chamber orchestra into a full size symphony orchestra playing large-scale works. Under its present Music Director, James Stobart, the NSO has become firmly established as one of the country's most successful amateur orchestras, playing to packed house in its Sunday Symphony Series at the Corn Exchange in King's Lynn.
The membership of the orchestra is gathered from a large catchment area, extending to Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and Essex, and includes professional musicians and teachers, as well as those for whom music making has always been a hobby. All age ranges are represented, from school children upwards.
