CRANBROOK SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

Moved to new url www.cso.org.uk. You should be automatically redirected - if not please click this link.

Director of Music: Judy Hollis

Leader: Rob Eastwood

The Orchestra welcomes people from all musical backgrounds. There are no auditions, but players need to be able to sight-read and to play the current repertoire.  We are particularly keen to recruit violinists, viola-players and horn-players.

We give two concerts a year, usually in Cranbrook.

Rehearsals Monday evenings at 7.30 at Angley School, Cranbrook

For more details, please contact our Secretary, Aileen Lehos at aplehos@toucansurf.com
