The Hereford String Orchestra (HSO) was founded in September
1958 as an advanced strings evening class. It quickly became
established as an independent orchestra, and today it is the
only regular adult orchestra in Herefordshire. Although
initially founded as a string group, it quickly developed a
pattern of concerts including wind, brass and percussion
players and sometimes choral groups. In the past the HSO
joined together with the Hereford Orchestral Society to give
large symphony concerts. But when the Society ceased to
function, the HSO took over such concerts. The HSO continues
to join with local choral societies from time to time. For
more information on the history of the HSO click here.
