Hi and welcome to our new blog for WSSSO. If you don't know about us then you may be interested to learn that we provide professional training and performance opportunities for talented school musicians across the 12 local authorities of the former Strathclyde Regional Council. That's over 160 schools and we've been doing it since 1996 - that means thousands of musicians have benefitted from what we do and we're very proud of that. If you know all that then you may be more interested to learn that we are currently at Carberry in Musselburgh, rehearsing for our concert in Greenock Town Hall on Friday evening. The orchestra is sounding fantastic and we have some of the best professional musicians here helping us put it all together. If you know all that, then you're obviously a member of the orchestra so you should really be practising and not skiving, reading this. Get back to work!
