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.

Where the HSO Rehearses

The Hereford String Orchestra rehearses every Monday in term time. Rehearsals commence at 7.30pm and usually finish around 9.30pm. Rehearsals take place in The Griffin Centre at Hereford Sixth Form College (unless other arrangements have to be made to accommodate college priorities). Hereford String Orchestra acknowledges with gratitude the sponsorship by Hereford Sixth Form College.
