The Rehearsal Orchestra is a musical charity that runs weekend and full-week orchestral courses for future professionals and serious amateurs. See www.rehearsal-orchestra.org for more details.

There is a course on Sunday 3 November in the Henry Wood Hall in Trinity Church Square which concludes with an informal play through of Tchaikovsky Symphony No 5 with four students from the Royal College of Music's prestigious post-graduate conducting programme. Each conductor will work on one movement, under the supervision of Artistic Director, Levon Parikian, culminating in the Open Rehearsal/informal playthrough and will start at 5.45pm.

The Administrator of the Orchestra has contacted TNRA and invited local residents to attend free of charge. Those wishing to attend should be seated by 5.40pm.

Although there is no charge on the door, the Orchestra would be grateful for donations made on the way out afterwards. Please let us know if you will be attending via info@tnra.net so we can let the Administrator have an idea of numbers.
