The orchestra continues to flourish, performing all kinds of music from classical to selections from musical shows, and it usually gives at least three concerts per year. The orchestra rehearses at St. Ambrose Church, 72 West Cliff Road, Westbourne, on Friday evenings from 7.30 pm to 9.30 pm.

2.provide a means by which musicians of various grades of competence can share the joy of making music together,
3.form its playing members into a symphony orchestra to encourage musical talent and appreciation and
4.raise funds for various charities.
