Easter Orchestra Week 2023

Friday 31 March 2023 – Thursday 6 April 2023

Free places for string/harp players aged 18-25

Half price places for full-time students

Update: all free/half price places now taken

Applications now open for EOS 2023 – vacancies for all strings except basses – all other sections are now full.

However, you can apply to the Waiting List for all sections, and we will contact you if a place becomes available because someone drops out.

An opportunity to tackle exciting repertoire that most amateurs don’t usually get a chance to play. The week is suitable for experienced orchestral players with excellent sight reading skills. Scholarship places, which waive all subscriptions, are available to young string and harp players and there are some subsided places for full-time students.

If you are a woodwind, brass, or percussion player or play in a section which is now full, we ask you to apply to the Waiting List. We will contact you if a vacancy becomes available because someone drops out. You do not need to pay a deposit to join the Waiting List.
