+ New Bristol Sinfonia

‘One of Bristol's premier symphony orchestras, with regular performances in major venues throughout the city ... The New Bristol Sinfonia ... had its first concert in June 1997, and has quickly grown into one of Bristol's most dynamic and prestigious amateur orchestras. It draws on local talent for its members from a variety of professional backgrounds, all who have the common goal of playing to the highest standard possible ... Its commitment to the city is shown by featuring local artists' work in the publicity and by commissioning works from composers with links to the region.’
