Description of vacancy: 

Welwyn Garden City Orchestra seeks a new Leader to start in September 2024.
 

We are looking for a violinist with good orchestral experience and a genuine enthusiasm to work with, support and inspire amateur musicians to achieve the best results possible.

This role may well suit someone with an orchestral background but wishing to do more work closer to home, and/or with a teaching practice in the area.

There is work to do to build string numbers, especially amongst violins and violas, and we'd hope a new leader would be willing to support this, while aiming for quality rather than merely quantity.

We rehearse at a local school every Tuesday (19:45-22:00) during term-time. We hold one concert at the end of each term, as well as an extra fund-raising concert in October.

Funding is available for this role.

 
Please send an email outlining your suitability for this role to orchestrasec@wgcms.org.uk by 30th April 2024.

Suitable applicants will be invited to join us at a Tuesday rehearsal in May-June 2024.
