Learning To Play

At ELLSO we have a well established system for helping adults learn to play music for the first time or improve their existing skills.

The Orchestra divides into several stages of abilities and the first thing is to decide which one to join. If you're not sure, email our Membership Secretary with details of which ABRSM grade level you've attained (and how long ago that was!), or just what kind of music you're able to play and we can advise you which stage to join. You're welcome to try out a couple different technique sessions to find the best fit.

We welcome complete beginners in September.

The Orchestra divides into several 'stages' of abilities and the first thing is to decide which one to join.

Stage 1 Absolute beginners
Stage 2 Players with a bit of experience.
Stage 3
Stage 4 More experienced players
Stage 5
