The Sinfonietta was born in 1996 to celebrate the
wealth of musical talent nurtured in Lancashire
and has a mission to
entertain, educate and inspire
local communities in the County. Thanks to the
continuing support of Lancashire County Council we have taken our music directly into the lives of thousands of adults and children.
The Sinfonietta's members are drawn from established orchestras throughout the UK and most received their early musical education in Lancashire. We enjoy intimate relationships with our world class directors and Lancastrian soloists and our season features famous names alongside rising young talent.
These home-grown musical champions return to Lancashire to inspire the next generation of talent at a personal, local level and mentoring is an important part of our work.
Since its' inception, the Sinfonietta has found many diverse ways of engaging the people of Lancashire...I invite you to explore these pages and discover one of the most vibrant orchestras in the UK.
