The Intermediate String Orchestra is the next step up from the Junior String Ensembles once pupils reach approximately Grade 3 on their instrument. The Intermediate String Orchestra performs an exciting and challenging repertoire giving pupils a wide musical experience. We give regular concerts and have performed on stage at Wembley Arena. In the past we have worked with Centre for Young Musicians (Guildhall division ) tutors and on 2 occasions have been invited to perform at the Music For Youth Regional Festival.
