Welcome

Since its formation in 2002 the Midlands-based Queen's Park Sinfonia has quickly established itself as one of the New Generation of exciting chamber orchestras in the UK. The Queen's Park Sinfonia offers the wealth of talented young graduate musicians in the region the opportunity to develop in a professional environment.

"The X-factor which marks the Queen's Park Sinfonia out from many of the other excellent chamber orchestras springing up all the time around our region is clear…" Christopher Morley, The Birmingham Post, September 2006

Often collaborating with highly acclaimed soloists and performing in prestigious venues, the orchestra allows its members to perform with like-minded professionals in supportive and creative surroundings. As a youthful ensemble we strive to create performances that are both challenging and satisfying to musicians and audiences alike.

The Queen's Park Sinfornia exists as a 'non-profit making' organisation and currently receives no financial support. All concerts and engagements enable the ensemble to finance future projects and allow for the on-going promotion and development of the orchestra.

In September 2003 the orchestra made its London debut in a concert at St John's, Smith Square, featuring former 'Young Musician of the Year' finalist, violinist Helena Wood. Recent highlights include collaboration with violinist Rimma Sushanskaya, the virtuoso violinist Leonid Sushansky, and a performance of Saint-Saëns' Carnival of the Animals in Symphony Hall, Birmingham, as part of the City's Discovery Day.
