We are recruiting!

14/04/2026

South London Sinfonia is now recruiting new members for the Autumn term, particularly violas and violins.

Since it was founded, South London Sinfonia has allowed enthusiastic amateurs with a range of abilities to enjoy making music together.

There is no audition, but players need to be a minimum of Grade 5 standard. The orchestra has played a wide variety of music in recent years, including Beethoven’s ‘Eroica’ Symphony No.3, Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E Minor with rising star Sharon Zhou, Schumann Cello Concerto with Leo Popplewell (Co-principal London Mozart Players) and Bruch Violin concerto no. 1 with Basil Alter (finalist in the Croydon Concerto competition)

The SummerTerm's repertoire will be an exciting programme: Respighi Ancient Airs and Dances, Clara Schumann Piano Concerto (with soloist Catherine Chang) and Beethoven's iconic Pastoral symphony (no. 6).

To inquire about joining, email slsinf@outlook.com

Here's Liz and Jan, the beating heart of our orchestra. They make sure that we all have sustainance (lots of cake!) during the rehearsals and organise wonderful refreshments for the concerts.
