The Easter Orchestral Society (formerly known as York Orchestral Course Society) dates back to 1977 when it was set up to continue an orchestral week which had been running for a quarter of a century at Attingham Park, Shropshire.
Since then Easter Orchestra Weeks have been held annually each Easter, sometimes at York St John University, but in more recent years, at Ellesmere College, Shropshire, close to the market town of Ellesmere.
