+ Sussex Symphony Orchestra

'The SSO was formed in January 1993. Based in Brighton, our members are a mixture of professional musicians and talented amateurs who live or work in Sussex ... You need to be at least Grade 8 standard and preferably have some orchestral experience. You’ll also need to deliver a great live concert performance with just one intense rehearsal ... We believe classical music should be accessible to everyone. We share our finest music-making with people of all ages and backgrounds ...  We’re run entirely by volunteers who dedicate their time to make our orchestra exceptional.'
