The Official Hereford String Orchestra's Website
-Read more on the HerefordTimes.com. WelcomeThe 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.
